"Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us — looking unto Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith!" Hebrews 12:1-2. Look only, look always, look intently, to Jesus; run looking, work looking, fight looking, suffer looking, live looking, and die looking — to Jesus, who is at God's right hand in glory. Oh, look, look, look to Jesus!
"Behold the Lamb of God, who bore
Your burdens on the tree;
And paid in blood the dreadful score —
The ransom due for Thee!
Your burdens on the tree;
And paid in blood the dreadful score —
The ransom due for Thee!
Look to Him till the sight endears
The Savior to your heart;
His pierced feet — bedew with tears,
Nor from His cross depart!
The Savior to your heart;
His pierced feet — bedew with tears,
Nor from His cross depart!
Look to Him till His dying love
Your every thought control;
Its vast constraining influence prove,
O'er body, spirit, soul.
Your every thought control;
Its vast constraining influence prove,
O'er body, spirit, soul.
Look to him, as the race you run,
Your never failing Friend;
Finish He will, the work begun,
And grace — in glory end!
Your never failing Friend;
Finish He will, the work begun,
And grace — in glory end!
