English Hymn K-L

Lift your eyes and look to heaven


1. Lift your eyes and look to heaven, from a world of chaos below.
Where the cries of wounded spirits. Sound around us where’er we go.
Having lost the road they wander, milling throngs they’ve lost the light too.
Like a prodigal exhausted! O believer! What will you do?


2. Lift your eyes and look to heaven, from a darken’d world below.
Where so many shout their nostrums. But the waters of life don’t flow.
Our Redeeming Lord seeks workers, who will labor, faithful and true.
Where is someone who will answer? O believer! What will you do?


3. Lift your eyes and look to heaven, to a living life giving Lord.
Weak we are, but still He calls us: Heaven’s bidding comes by His word.
Christ alone the living water, first and last eternity through.
He is Lord! It’s you He’s calling. O believer! What will you do?


4. Lift your eyes and look to heaven, He who came again from the grave.
He in love for all earth’s people, still is waiting one more to save.
Yet the Lord our loving Saviour, has a day of just judgment too.
Everyday the Day draws nearer. O believer! What will you do?

 



My soul today is thirsting for living streams divine,
To sweep from highest heaven to this poor heart of mine;
I stand upon the promise, in Jesus’ name I plead;
Oh, send the gracious current to satisfy my need.

Refrain
Like a mighty sea, like a mighty sea,
Comes the love of Jesus sweeping over me;
The waves of glory roll, the shouts I can’t control;
Comes the love of Jesus sweeping o’er my soul.


I see the clouds arising, the mercy clouds of love,
That come to bring refreshing down from the throne above;
The earnest of the shower, just now to us is giv’n,
And now we wait, expecting the floods of grace from heav’n.


The show’rs of grace are falling, the tide is rolling in,
The floodtide of salvation, with pow’r to cleanse from sin;
It’s surging through my being and takes my sin away,
It keeps me shouting glory! through all the happy day.


It’s coming, yes, it’s coming, it’s coming down this hour,
A torrent of salvation in saving, cleansing pow’r:
I hear the billows surging, I see them mount and roll;
Oh, glory, hallelujah! they’re sweeping through my soul.

 


The Light of the world is Jesus


The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin,
The Light of the world is Jesus!
Like sunshine at noonday, His glory shone in;
The Light of the world is Jesus!


Refrain:
Come to the light, ’tis shining for thee;
Sweetly the light has dawned upon me;
Once I was blind, but now I can see:
The Light of the world is Jesus!


No darkness have we who in Jesus abide;
The Light of the world is Jesus!
We walk in the light when we follow our Guide!
The Light of the world is Jesus!


Ye dwellers in darkness with sin-blinded eyes,
The Light of the world is Jesus!
Go, wash at His bidding, and light will arise;
The Light of the world is Jesus!


No need of the sunlight in Heaven we’re told;
The Light of the world is Jesus!
The Lamb is the Light in the city of gold,
The Light of the world is Jesus!
