Look to the Precious Jesus

Author: T. P. W. Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Look to the precious Jesus, Think of the life He gave; Look to the precious Jesus, He has the pow’r to save; wildly the waves are dashing, Storm-clouds are hanging near, While lightnings sharp are flashing, Filling the souls with fear. Refrain: Look to the precious Jesus, Think of the life He gave; Look to the precious Jesus, He has the pow’r to save. 2 Look to the precious Jesus, Ask Him for help today; Look to the precious Jesus, Ask Him to lead the way; Safe thro’ the clouds of sorrow, Safe o’er the dark’ning tide, Into the glad tomorrow, Up to the Father’s side. [Refrain] 3 Look to the precious Jesus, Gladly He’ll come to thee; Look to the precious Jesus, Ask Him to make you free; Free from the pow’rs that bind thee, Free from the ways of sin, Free from the thoughts that blind thee, Helping a crown to win. [Refrain] Topics: Faith Used With Tune: [Look to the precious Jesus]
