Look Away (To Jesus) Lyrics

By Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir

Verse 1

For many years He called my name 

Told me all I had to gain 

But each time He gave the call 

I just looked away; 

Then He turned my eyes around 

He set my feet on higher ground 

From Satan's power that very hour I looked away. 



Chorus

Look away to Jesus, look away 

There's a beauty of Jesus Christ on display 

Just feast your eyes upon the word of life today 

From fear and dread just turn your head and look away. 



Verse 2

In this day we look and learn 

Sin is everywhere we turn 

But there's a message from above 

Just look away 

If He asked us to turn our head 

He'll give us something to see instead 

The Word of life is Jesus Christ 

Come look away.
