1 Looking to Jesus for my salvation;
Looking to Him for pardon and peace:
Looking to Him to guide me and keep me
Until life's trying journey shall cease.

2 Looking to Jesus who upon Calv'ry
Died to redeem me, His own to be:
All that I need I find it in Jesus,
Jesus is all-sufficient for me.

3 Did it not please the heavenly Father,
That in Him all our fullness should dwell?
If we will just be loyal to Jesus,
All will be well, yes, all will be well.

4 Looking to Jesus, He is our Captain;
Looking to Jesus, He is our Way:
Looking to Jesus for our protection,
When His pure Word we trust and obey.
