We Turn Our Eyes
We Turn Our Eyes
Song based on the Bible verse:
Psalm 43:5
Why are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
For I shall yet praise Him,
The help of my countenance and my God.
Hebrews 12:1-3
1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the [a]author and [b]finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.

1
O soul are you weary and troubled
No light in the darkness you see
There is light for a look at the Savior
And life more abundant and free
We turn our eyes
We turn our eyes
See the darkness bow to light
And we will rise
And we will rise
Love has overcome the night
2
Through death into life ever lasting
He passed and we follow Him there
And over us sin no more has dominion
For more than conquerors we are
We turn our eyes
We turn our eyes
See the darkness bow to light
And we will rise
And we will rise
Love has overcome the night
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
In the light of His glory and grace
In the light of His glory and grace
We turn our eyes
We turn our eyes
See the darkness bow to light
And we will rise
And we will rise
Love has overcome the night
3
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
