No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!”
‘Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus’ is also known as ‘The Heavenly Vision.’ It is a hymn written by Helen Howarth Lemmel in 1918. It was inspired by a pamphlet entitled Focused, written by the missionary Isabella Lilias Trotter.

“Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.”
These lyrics are such an important reminder to set our eyes to Jesus in all matters. Each and every day, we give thanks for His many blessings and use words of worship to give praise to His Name.
