There's life in a look at the sacred cross, Jesus has said, Look unto me, Earth with its riches is only cross, Bright treasures beyond in the cross I see.
REFRAIN
In a look there's life for thee (In a look there's life for thee) In a look at Calvary (In a look at Calvary) Blessed thought, salvation free (Blessed thought, salvation free) By a look at Calvary. (By a look at Calvary.)
When first to the Savior I raised my eyes, Sweet was the smile that fell on me; Oft as the clouds of temptations rise, A look at the cross still my strength shall be.
I'll look to the cross ev'ry day and hour, Trusting the promise God has given; None ever fall neath the tempter's pow'r, Who trust and obey in the strength of Heav'n.
