Author: Julia H. Johnston Hymnal: Young People's Songs of Praise #51 (1902) First Line: O souls in darkness groping Refrain First Line: O look to Jesus only Lyrics: 1 O souls in darkness groping,
And longing for the light,
Believe ye that the Saviour
Can give the blind their sight?
Refrain:
O look to Jesus only,
With Him is love and might;
Believe that He is able
To lead you into light.
2 Of old He had compassion,
The Lord of life and love,
And He is “that same Jesus,”
Enthroned in light above. [Refrain]
3 He claims your faith undoubting,
“Believe ye?” is His word;
Was ever voice so tender
By weary mortal heard? [Refrain]
4 And now, that Christ is able
His promise to fulfill,
O cast yourselves upon Him,
And say, “I know He will.” [Refrain] Topics: Faith; Invitation Scripture: Matthew 9:28 Tune Title: [O souls in darkness groping]
Believe Ye that He is Able?
