Look to Jesus Christ Thy Saviour
Author: Frans Mikael Franzén Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Look to Jesus Christ thy Saviour,
Thou who art God's child and friend;
Let thy heart forget Him never,
Still thy gaze on Jesus bend.
In thy rest and in thy labor
Look to Him with ev'ry breath,
Look to Jesus' life and death.
2 Look to Jesus, till reviving
Faith and love thy bosom swell;
Strength for all things good deriving
From Him who did all things well;
Work as He did, in thy season,
Works which shall not fade away,
Work while it is called To-day.
3 Look to Jesus, praying, waking,
When thy feet on roses tread;
Follow, worldly pomp forsaking,
With thy cross where He hath led.
Look to Jesus in temptation;
Baffled shall the tempter flee,
And God's angels come to thee.
4 Look to Jesus, when dark lowering
Perils thy horizon dim;
Unlike His disciples cowering,
Calm 'mid tempests look on Him.
Trust in Him who still rebuketh
Wind and billow, fire and flood;
Forward! then, and trust in God.
5 Look to Jesus when distressèd,
See what He, the Sinless, bore;
Is thy heart with conflict pressèd?
Is thy soul still harassed sore?
See His bloody sweat, His conflict,
Watch His agony increase,
Hear His prayer, and taste His peace!
6 Art thou by sore want surrounded?
Do thy pains press forth thy sighs?
Art thou wronged and deeply wounded?
Does a scornful world despise?
Friends forsake thee or deny thee?
See what Jesus must endure,
He who as the light was pure!
7 Look to Jesus still to shield thee,
When this dwelling thou must leave;
In that last need He will yield thee
Peace the world can never give.
Look to Him, thy head low bending;
He, who finished all for thee,
Takes thee then with Him to be.

Lord, Disperse the Mists of Error
Author: Johan Åström Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, disperse the mists of error,
In Thy light let me see light;
Give Thou me that faith and vision
Whereby I may walk aright.
In my Saviour's path discerning,
Through this vale of doubt and strife,
Footsteps to eternal life.
2 Shed Thy light upon my pathway,
Be my light in death's dark hour.
Let me, freed from sin's dread burden,
From the Law's accusing power,
Nearer draw, and ever nearer,
To that land with glory bright,
Where Thou art Eternal Light.
Amen.

Heavenly Light, Benignly Beaming
Author: Johan Olof Wallin Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Heav'nly light, benignly beaming Lyrics: 1 Heav'nly light, benignly beaming,
Breaketh o'er the hopeless earth.
From the Son eternal streaming,
Spring the rays of promise forth.
Light supernal, O how glorious
To our eyes is Thy advance,
Giving us to see God's plans!
2 All unknown to worldly sages,
Who were to His glory blind,
Jesus came, O light of ages,
Day of grace to all mankind!
Truth He brought to ev'ry seeker,
Grace to ev'ry troubled breast,
Man with peace and mercy blest.
3 In a world where lusts contended,
Crimes were bred and bitterness,
Christ appeared; with Him descended
Love divine and holiness.
Hearts were filled with his pure Spirit,
Love bade warring passions cease;
Earth was blest with joy and peace.
4 Blessed they who ever ready
Hear the heavenly Teacher's Word,
They who walk with purpose steady
In the footsteps of the Lord;
Guided by His Holy Spirit,
Led by faith, and not by sight,
They shall gain the realms of light.
5 Lo, their faith and love shall conquer
Vanity and unbelief,
Shedding o'er a word of rancor
Kindly light, to solace grief.
In life's turmoil, in death's shadow
Anchor they their hope secure
On the Rock that shall endure.
6 Radiance of the Father's glory,
Send Thy beams in splendor forth.
Break upon the ages hoary,
Dawn of faith and peace on earth!
Let this world be as the pathway
To that heaven where shall be
Gathered they who walked with Thee.
