<p><em>Words:</em> <a href="./hymns/hymns_bio/bio_l_e_lemmel_hh.html" target="_blank">Helen Howarth Lemmel</a>, 1922. The inspiration for the lyrics came from the Gospel tract <em>Focused</em>, by Lillian Trotter, which included these words:</p>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>So then, turn your eyes upon Him, look full into His face and you will find that the things of earth will acquire a strange new dimness.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<p>The hymn was first published in <em>Glad Songs</em>, by the British National Sunday School Union.</p>

|
<p>O soul, are you weary and troubled?<br>
|
|
No light in the darkness you see?<br>
|
|
There’s a light for a look at the Savior,<br>
|
|
And life more abundant and free!</p>

<p class="refrain">Turn your eyes upon Jesus,<br>
|
|
Look full in His wonderful face,<br>
|
|
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,<br>
|
|
In the light of His glory and grace.</p>
|
|
<p>Through death into life everlasting<br>
|
|
He passed, and we follow Him there;<br>
|
|
Over us sin no more hath dominion—<br>
|
|
For more than conquerors we are!</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>His Word shall not fail you—He promised;<br>
|
|
Believe Him, and all will be well:<br>
|
|
Then go to a world that is dying,<br>
|
|
His perfect salvation to tell!</p>
