O Eyes That Are Weary

O eyes that are wea­ry

and hearts that are sore

Look on­ly to Je­sus

now sor­row no more!

The light of His coun­te­nance shin­eth so bright

That here

as in Heav­en

there need be no night.

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 ye trou­bled? He saith un­to me.

Still look­ing to Je­sus

O 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.

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.
