O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free.
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there;
O’er us sin no more hath dominion
For more than conqu’rors we are!
He passed, and we follow Him there;
O’er us sin no more hath dominion
For more than conqu’rors we are!

His Word shall not fail you, He promised;
Believe Him and all will be well;
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!
Believe Him and all will be well;
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!

I woke up with this scripture (Matthew 17:8) in my head, linking to this song, then I recalled this song.
Thank You Lord for the great gift of salvation.

I woke up with this song in my head. Love this beautiful hymn.
I was sleeping and awoke to the tune of this song which I had not heard for some time. Then I tried to recall the words to the tune. I only could recall the chorus part, and then came here to search. Just what I needed. Thank You Lord Jesus for Your Great Love!

In a world that is sometimes so dark His light shines so beautifully. Thank You, Jesus, for Your salvation and for never leaving us.

Praise be to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. God through His Son will gather you up and hold you so no harm becomes of you. This song is a song of the heart and soul, a saving and wonderful Blessing.
In times of trouble and deceit, we who are His children must trust on the firm foundation of our Savior, Jesus.
Your treasures are NOT of this world. True peace and happiness are only found through trust in the Lord and waiting for the Lord to work his will through us.
This song, as short as it is, will lift you up and carry you to a higher place, away from this world and to the saving light of the Father.
Amen.

I'm blown away and blessed so much, again, by You Lord, all these many hearts worshiping You and trusting You, I love You so much. You will allow us to see You and You will allow that we can see each other soon, You being our God and we your children for ever and ever, we worship You, we love You, because You love us so much. Eph. 2:10

Amen to all those who have said the truth and nothing but the truth about Jesus our Lord and Saviour. We ought always to turn our eyes upon Jesus because He is our only hope in whatever situation we face in life.
What a blessed thing it is to be SAVED and know for sure that we have a place in Heaven for all Eternity. More than half of the world has rejected the Saviour who died for their sins on that cruel Cross at Calvary.
Praise be to God and all honour and Glory are His for all eternity. Amen.

TURN YOUR EYES UPON JESUS
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.” Mk 11:22
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I ask some Christians, “How are you doing?” They say, “Okay—under the circumstances.” How did you ever get there?
Circumstances are like a mattress. You’re supposed to be on it, not under it. Under the circumstances, you suffocate; on them you rest pretty well.
The only way you can run the race is to take your eyes off things or people around you and look to Jesus. He’s the author of the race. He’s the goal to which you run. If you look to Jesus to supply your every need for the race, you’ll find faith growing in your heart and in your life. You see, it’s not great faith in God; it is faith in a great God.
