Author: Miss A. M. Hull Hymnal: Choice Hymns of the Faith #251 (1944) First Line: There is life in a look at the Crucified One Refrain First Line: Look! look! look and live Lyrics: 1 There is life in a look at the Crucified One;
There is life at this moment for thee;
Then look, sinner, look unto Him and be saved,
Unto Him who was nailed to the tree.
Refrain:
Look! look! look and live!
There is life in a look at the Crucified One,
There is life at this moment for thee.
2 Oh, why was He there as the Bearer of sin,
If on Jesus thy guilt was not laid?
Oh, why from His side flowed the sin-cleansing blood,
If His dying thy debt hath not paid? [Refrain]
3 It is not thy tears of repentance or prayers,
But the blood, that atones for the soul;
On Him, then, who shed it, thou mayest at once
Thy weight of iniquities roll. [Refrain]
4 Then doubt not thy welcome, since God has declared
There remaineth no more to be done;
That once in the end of the world He appeared,
And completed the work He begun. [Refrain]
5 Then take with rejoicing from Jesus at once
The life everlasting He gives;
And know with assurance thou never canst die,
Since Jesus, thy righteousness, lives. [Refrain]
