Author: Amelia M. Hull Hymnal: Crowning Glory No. 2 #26 (1890) First Line: There is life for a look at the crucified One Refrain First Line: Then look unto Him Lyrics: 1 There is life for a look at the crucified One,
There is life at this moment for thee;
Then look, sinner, look unto Him and be saved,
Unto Him who was nailed to the tree.
Refrain
Then look unto Him,
Then look unto Him and be saved;
There is life for a look at the crucified One,
There is life at this moment for thee.
2 Oh, why was He there as the Bearer of sin,
If on Jesus thy guilt was not laid?
Oh, why from His side flowed the sin-cleansing blood,
If His dying thy debt has not paid? [Refrain]
3 It is not thy tears of repentance or prayers,
But the blood, that atones for the soul;
On Him, then, who shed it, thou mayest, at once
Thy weight of iniquities roll. [Refrain]
4 Then take, with rejoicing, from Jesus at once,
The life everlasting He gives,
And know with assurance thou never canst die,
Since Jesus thy righteousness lives. [Refrain] Scripture: Isaiah 45:22 Languages: English Tune Title: [There is life for a look at the crucified One]

He traveled extensively with D. L. Moody, and was Billy Sunday's song leader on evangelistic endeavors. His evangelistic work took him into all the states of the Union, Great Britain, and other foreign countries. In London he conducted a 4000 voice choir in the Crystal Palace, and Queen Victoria invited him to sing in Buckinghm Palace. He wrote some 2000 gospel songs in his lifetime. He also invented a folding portable telescoping pump organ, weighing 16 lbs. It could be set up in about a minute. He used it at revivals in the late 19th century. He founded the Bilhorn Folding Organ Company in Chicago. IL, and his organ was so popular it was sold all over the world. He edited 10 hymnals and published 11 gospel songbooks.
