Author: J. H. Sammis Hymnal: The Voice of Thanksgiving #28 (1913) First Line: It is written in the Book, Hallelujah Refrain First Line: Look and live, look and live Lyrics: 1 It is written in the Book, Hallelujah!
‘Tis a word of priceless worth,
Hear and heed it, all the earth;
There’s salvation in a look, Hallelujah!
Look to Jesus Christ and live.
Refrain:
Look and live, look and live,
Look, look to Him, and live!
For the message is to you;
There is nothing you can do,
Only look, look and live!
2 See the cross uplifted high, Hallelujah!
Whosoever will believe,
Life eternal shall receive,
For the soul shall never die, Hallelujah!
That will look to Him and live. [Refrain]
3 When He rose up through the sky, Hallelujah!
All their sins are blotted out
Who believe and do not doubt;
Then to Him lift up thine eye, Hallelujah!
And thy soul shall ever live. [Refrain]
4 We’ll proclaim it far and wide, Hallelujah!
O ye sons of men take heed,
And lay hold of life indeed;
Send it forth on wind and tide, Hallelujah!
Look to Him, yes, look and live. [Refrain] Tune Title: [It is written in the Book, Hallelujah]
Look and Live
