Look to Jesus

Verse 1

Look to Jesus! till, reviving, Faith and love thy life-springs swell, Strength for all good things deriving; Jesus hath done all things well. Work, while it is called to-day, Works which shall not fade away.

Verse 2

Look to Jesus, prayerful waking Where thy feet on roses tread; Follow, worldly pomp forsaking, With thy cross, where he hath led. Baffled shall the tempter flee, And God's angels come to thee.

Verse 3

Look to Jesus, when, dark lowering, Perils thy horizon dim; Once from him a band fell cowering; Calm in tempests, look on him; Wind and billow, fire and flood, Forward! brave by trusting God.

Verse 4

Look to Jesus still to shield thee, When no longer thou may'st live; In that last need, he will yield thee Peace the world can never give; He who finished all for thee Takes thee, then, with him to be.
