I Looked to Jesus

I looked to Jesus in my sin,
My woe and want confessing;
Undone, and lost, I came to Him,
I sought, and found a blessing.

I looked to Jesus on the Cross;
For me I saw Him dying;
God's Word believed—that all my sins
Were there upon Him lying.

I looked to Jesus there on high,
From death up-raised to glory;
I trusted in His power to save,
Believed the old, old story.

He looked on me—O, look of love!
My heart by it was broken;
And with that look of love He gave
The Holy Spirit's token.

Now one with Christ, I find my peace
In Him to be abiding;
And in His love for all my need,
In child-like faith confiding.
'THE LORD JESUS SHALL BE REVEALED FROM HEAVEN WITH HIS MIGHTY ANGELS; IN FLAMING FIRE TAKING VENGEANCE ON THEM 'AT KNOW NOT GOD AND THAT OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL OF. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST." 2 Thess. 1:7, 87And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 8In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: (2 Thessalonians 1:7‑8)
