Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
Hillsong · This Is Our God [2008]
Look full in his wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of his glory and grace
Turn, turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in his wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of his glory and grace
