Let us, the Body of Christ, turn our eyes upon Jesus and look full in His wonderful face! Then the things of this world will finally go dim in the light of His glory and grace! Amen! Come Lord Jesus!
My sister and I sang this to our mother who requested this song in her final days. Every time I read/hear them, I’m starkly reminded what I see is temporal at best. Only CHRIST and His gift of eternal life is worth fully focusing on, fully pressing on towards.
This song was placed on my heart as I began writing a message for my youth group in a couple of weeks. I was hoping to find some more information on the author but instead stumbled upon all of your powerful testimonies, stories, and thoughts. You all have uplifted me greatly with these. I cannot wait to share this message with our students. It is a timely one for both myself and many of the things students have expressed struggling with themselves. God has given us all we need here on this Earth, and we can be joyful in that! Trials do not stand with Him in our corner.
Then go into a world that is dying, His perfect salvation to tell!
"Therefore let us also, having so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, put away every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us and run with endurance the race which is set before us, Looking away unto Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down on the right hand of the throne of God." (Hebrews 12:1-2) Recovery Version
Experientially, when we turn to our mingled spirit we are brought out of ourselves, out of our condition, out of our sovereign environment into the realm of enjoyment, joy, and peace into our awesome Christ who is our Victorious King! We overcomer all the earthly entanglements to run our Christian race!
"Not that I have already obtained or am already perfected, but I pursue, if even I may lay hold of that for which I also have been laid hold of by Christ Jesus. Brothers, I do not account of myself to have laid hold; but one thing I do: Forgetting the things which are behind and stretching forward to the things which are before, I pursue toward the goal for the prize to which God in Christ Jesus has called me upward." (Philippians 3:12-14) Recovery Version
