O eyes that are weary
And hearts that are sore,
Look off unto Jesus,
And sorrow no more!
The light of his countenance
Shineth so bright
That on earth, as in Heaven,
There need be no night. Looking off unto Jesus,
My eyes cannot see
The trouble and danger
That throng about me;
They cannot be blinded
With sorrowful tears;
They cannot be shadowed
With unbelief fears. Looking off unto Jesus,
My spirit is blessed;
In the world I have turmoil,
In him I have rest.
The sea of my life
All about me may roar;
When I look unto Jesus
I hear it no more. Looking off unto Jesus,
I go not astray;
My eyes are on him
And he shows me the way;
The path may seem dark,
As he leads me along,
But following Jesus
I cannot go wrong. —Sel.
