A look to Jesus saves the soul,
So boundless is His grace;
One look sufficeth every sin
Forever to efface.
The thief beheld, with eye of faith,
The Saviour by his side;
He looked upon that blessed One,
Received His word, and died.
Thousands besides have looked to Him,
Who mighty is to save;
And proved the truth of God's own Word:
The soul that looks shall live.
