"Looking unto Jesus"

Author: John N. Darby Appears in 155 hymnals Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Lyrics: 1 O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Look off unto Jesus, now sorrow no more! The light of his countenance shineth so bright, That here, as in heaven, there need be no night. 2 While looking to Jesus, my heart cannot fear; I tremble no more when I see Jesus near; I know that his presence my safeguard will be, For, "Why are you troubled," he saith unto me. 3 Still looking to Jesus, oh, may I be found, When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round; They bear me away in his presence to be: I see him still nearer whom always I see. 4 Then, then, shall I know the full beauty and grace Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face; Shall know how his love went before me each day, And wonder that ever my eyes turned away.

There they shall sing eternal praise To Him who saved them by His grace; Through heaven's courts the song shall swell, All is well! All is well! 4 With longing hearts we wait the promised day When the trump we shall hear, That summons us from earthly cares away, At His side to appear! But until then we'll labor on In patience till our course is run, Although the hour we may not tell, All is well, All is well! Scripture: Romans 8:28 Used With Tune: ALL IS WELL
