Author: James M. Gray Hymnal: Alexander's New Revival Hymns #116 (1922) First Line: I saw one hanging on a tree Refrain First Line: He's looking on you, looking on you Lyrics: 1 I saw one hanging on a tree,
In visions of my soul,
Who turn’d His loving eyes on me
As near His cross I stole.
Refrain:
He's looking on you, looking on you!
Oh, never were love and compassion so true;
He's looking on you, looking on you!
How can you refuse Him?
He's looking, looking on you!
2 A gentle but condemning power
Was stored within that eye;
And ne'er can I forget that hour,
From henceforth till I die. [Refrain]
3 Another look He gave, which said:
"I freely all forgive;
My blood is for a ransom shed,
I die that thou may'st live.” [Refrain]
4 O sinner, thou must meet that gaze
In judgment or in grace;
Repent, believe and change thy ways,
Ere thou behold His face. [Refrain] Scripture: Lamentations 3:22 Languages: English Tune Title: [I saw one hanging on a tree]
Looking on You
