Verse 1:
O precious friend, look around you,
Tell me, what do you see?
Riches and pleasures surround you;
What good can it all be?
O precious soul, look to Jesus!
Through faith in Him you will see:
Life is so vain lived without Him
But with Him, happy you’ll be.
Verse 2:
Pleasure may last for a while,
But if your soul is lost;
Whether or not you smile,
It will not cover the cost.
O precious soul, look to Jesus!
Your only hope is in Him.
Life can only get better
When you let Him reign within
Verse 3:
Friend, don’t you see all around you
Sadness, doubt, stress and pain?
Something for Jesus you can do;
Just yield yourself to His claim.
O precious soul, look to Jesus!
Your help and strength He will be.
Just trust in God, He will help you,
And He will set you free.
Verse 4:
Friend, you are precious in God’s sight.
You really can do His will.
In faith, keep fighting the good fight;
His is purpose in you He’ll fulfill
O precious soul, look to Jesus!
He is the One with the key.
Just unlock the door and He’ll save you,
And you will have victory.
Verse 5:
O precious friend, in the world,
You will gain no peace of mind;
Looking up to Jesus,
True peace in Him you will find.
O precious soul, look to Jesus!
For you He suffered and died;
Just take what He has offer,
And you will be satisfied.
