“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Hebrews 12:2-3
When the weight of the world bears upon you,
When trouble and despair overcome;
When weariness falls from temptations and trials,
Lift your eyes to God’s glorious Son.
When it feels there is no one to turn to,
Who will share in your aching release;
If you find no shoulder on which to recline,
Lift your eyes to the God of great peace.
Cast your burdens upon His mighty shoulders;
Run to Him, and do not delay.
Lift your eyes and your heart to your Maker,
And look into His beautiful face.
For it’s there that your solace awaits you;
It’s there where relief can be found.
When you look upon your Savior,
His peace will forever abound.
