LOOKING OFF UNTO JESUS
1. O eyes that are
weary
and hearts that are
sore,
Look off unto
Jesus,
and sorrow no more;
The light of His
countenance
shineth so bright,
That on earth as in
heaven
there need be no
night.
2. Looking off unto
Jesus,
My eyes cannot see
The troubles and
dangers
That throng around
me;
They cannot be
blinded
With sorrowful
tears;
They cannot be
shadow'd
With unbelieving
fears.
3. Looking off unto
Jesus,
My spirit is blest;
In the world I have
turmoil,
In Him I have rest.
The sea of my life
all
About me may roar;
When I look unto
Jesus,
I hear it no more.
4. Looking off unto
Jesus,
I go not astray;
My eyes are on Him,
and
He shows me the
way.
The path may seem
dark as
He leads me along,
But following
Jesus,
I cannot go wrong.
5. Looking off unto
Jesus,
Until in Heav'n I
see
The full beauty and
grace
Of Jesus my Lord.
I shall know how
His love
Went before me each
day
And wonder that
ever
My eyes turned
away.
