16247. Look Ever To Jesus

1 Look ev­er to Jesus,
Trust well in His love;
Tread man­ful­ly on­ward,
Toward Heav’n above.
Jesus is your Sav­ior,
Your shep­herd and guide;
He’ll car­ry you safely—
Keep close by His side.

Refrain:
Ask His bless­ing to guide you,
His love will pro­vide you;
Naught of grace is de­nied you,
Look to Jesus for aid.

2 Look ev­er to Je­sus,
When temp­ta­tions rise;
In times of des­pond­ing
He hears all your cries.
He’s watch­ing you ev­er,
He beck­ons to you;
Still fol­low His foot­steps,
He’ll guide safe­ly through. [Refrain]

3 Look ev­er to Je­sus,
Our dear, bless­ed Lord;
Remember the pro­mise
Set forth in His word.
He’ll ne­ver re­ject you,
When tru­ly you come;
In death He will save you,
He’ll car­ry you home. [Refrain]
