LyicsWHILE looking to Jesus, my heart can not fear;
I tremble no more when I see Jesus near;
I know that His presence my safeguard will be,
For "Why are you troubled?" He saith unto me.
Still looking to Jesus, O may I be found,
When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round!
They bear me away, in His presence to be;
I see Him still nearer whom always I see.
Then, then shall I know the full beauty and grace
Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face;
Shall know how His love went before me each day,
And wonder that ever my eyes turn'd away.
