Looking to Jesus

While across time’s ocean sail­ing

Should thy sky ad­verse­ly low­er

And temp­ta­tion’s waves as­sail­ing

Rock thee with alarm­ing pow­er

Look to Je­sus! Look to Je­sus!

Whatsoe’er thy trou­ble be

Trust in Je­sus! Trust in Je­sus!

He will prove a friend to thee.

When thy faith be­gins to wa­ver

And thy strength and hope grow small

Raise thine arms to Heav’n

where Jes­us

Waits to heed thy faint­est call.

When thy heart is sad with trou­ble

And thy mind dark with des­pair

Look to Je­sus

who re­gards thee

With the ten­der­est love and care.

Long as life’s voy­age is tend­ing

Onward ev­er to its end

Look to Je­sus

He will prove thee

An un­fail­ing

pre­cious friend.
