30. Look to the Savior

1 Art thou laden with a weight oppressing?
Bring it to Jesus, bring it to Jesus;
Humbly kneel and claim the promised blessing,
Look to the Savior in prayer.

Refrain:
Look to the Savior,
Seeking His favor,
Bring Him thy burden of care;
He’ll not forsake thee,
Grief shall not o’ertake thee,
Look to the Savior in prayer.

2 Dost thou seek a balm for care and sadness?
Find it in Jesus, find it in Jesus;
He will pour the oil of holy gladness,
Look to the Savior in prayer. [Refrain]

3 Is the cross to heavy thou must carry?
Cast it on Jesus, cast it on Jesus;
Come this moment, do not longer tarry,
Look to the Savior in prayer. [Refrain]

4 Doth a cord of evil passion bind thee?
Calling on Jesus, calling on Jesus,
Leave the mem’ry of thy sin behind thee,
Look to the Savior in prayer. [Refrain]

5 Here is solace for the heart of sorrow,
Only in Jesus, only in Jesus;
Peace today and comfort for the morrow;
Look to the Savior in prayer. [Refrain]

6 Great compassion hath the Master shown thee:
Trust all to Jesus, trust all to Jesus;
Friends misjudge, but He hath fully known thee:
Look to the Savior in prayer. [Refrain]
