Look to Jesus, When in Trouble

lyricist: J. L. M. Young, 1896
Composer: Peter Bilhorn

Look to Je­sus

when in trou­ble

Let Him al­ways for thee care;

Cast thy bur­den on the Sav­ior

All thy griefs He came to bear.

Look to Je­sus! look to Je­sus!

See Him hang­ing on the tree!

Through His death

He came to save us;

See Him dy­ing there for thee!

Look to Je­sus

when the bil­lows

Rush o’er thee

a migh­ty wave;

Lift thy hand and soul to Heav­en

Christ Him­self will quick­ly save.

Look to Je­sus

when temp­ta­tions

Lure thee from the nar­row road

Touched with all thy hu­man feel­ings

He will bear thy hea­vy load.

Look to Je­sus

when in trou­ble

When by sin and sor­row pressed;

Don’t re­ject His pre­cious pro­mise

Come to Me

I’ll give thee rest.
