Hymn of Invitation and Acceptance .……...….….……....…Hymn 320 Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus by Helen H. Lemmel

1. O soul, are you weary and troubled? No light in the darkness you see? There's light for a look at the Savior, And life more abundant and free!

Refrain: Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His wonderful face, And the things of earth will grow strangely dim In the light of His glory and grace.

2. Thro' death into life everlasting He passed, and we follow Him there; Over us sin no more hath dominion– For more than conq'rors we are! Refrain

3. His word shall not fail you– He promised; Believe Him, and all will be well: Then go to a world that is dying, His perfect salvation to tell! Refrain
