83. Look and Live

1 I've a message from the Lord, Hallelujah!
The message unto you I'll give,
'Tis recorded in His Word, Hallelujah!
It is only that you "look and live."

Chorus:
"Look and live" my brother, live,
Look to Jesus now and live,
'Tis recorded in His word, Hallelujah!
It is only that you "look and live."

2 I've a message full of love, Hallelujah!
A message, O my friend, for you,
'Tis a message from above, Hallelujah!
Jesus said it, and I know 'tis true. [Chorus]

3 Life is offer'd unto you, Hallelujah!
Eternal life thy soul shall have,
If you'll only look to Him, Hallelujah!
Look to Jesus who alone can save. [Chorus]

4 I will tell you how I came, Hallelujah!
To Jesus when He made me whole:
'Twas believing on His name, Hallelujah!
I trusted and He sav'd my soul [Chorus]
