Apparently the writer of this beautiful song, Helen Lemme, was blind when she wrote it, along with the lyrics. She said it came wholesale to her mind without pre thought or changes, a pure gift from His Spirit. As a sad side note, her husband many years before had divorced her when she became blind. Praise the Lord that He was her true Bridegroom, and ours as well!!
In the middle of a storm. My husband filed our divorce a few days ago and this song has been an anchor through this season. No matter what I face, no matter the pain, no matter what I lose. My affections are set on Christ.
I had the same experience, 15 years ago when my husband of 31 years said quits to our marriage. This song has given me strength and comfort during the process of a painful event in my life. Looking back, I realized that by focusing my eyes, my thoughts upon Jesus, He gave me the power to forgive and to move on without regret and resentment.
I’m so sorry , your husband has broken his vow to the lord . But Jesus by his Holy Spirit will never leave you or forsake you . He really cares for the broken hearted . He has a plan for you .
I was a child when I heard this hymn. Then, when the service finished, I asked to talk with the pastor. He took my hand and brought me to his office. When we were in, he prayed for me. That day I received Jesus as my savior and Lord.
Sono felice di sentire che tante persone, nel mondo, sono state afferrate dall'amore per Cristo. Chi percepisce di essere amato da lui riceve il dono piu' grande che possa desiderare. Si sente felice ed ogni situazione bella, difficile o dolorosa diventa una lezione di vita. Ogni momento della quotidinianita' diventa piu' leggero e sopportabile perche' la luce di Cristo sara' energia ed armonia interiore. Non delude il suo Amore e la sua grazia e chi ci conosce potra' attingere da noi tanta bonta' e testimonianza di vita anche nella malattia. Dio benedica Voi tutti che con condividete questi sentimenti.😘🤗🙏😇♥️
I was a lost soul on my way to hell when I heard this beautiful hymn at a Christian Crusade in 1975 .... I gave my heart to Jesus Christ he saved me ... Hallelujah Amen My Lord Jesus has kept his promises to me since the day I asked him to forgive me of my sin Now I'm following him still 46 years later ... continue thank you God my heavenly father and lord Jesus
I was saved and born again by Jesus Christ in 2020. It's now 2024 and at times I get tempted to get a college degree and have lots of friends and experiences while I'm still young but it's so true when the lyrics say "the things of earth grow strangely dim" when I'm close with Jesus, all these worldly things become insignificant to me and I just want to live humbly and be with Jesus forever. He is my love, my peace, my refuge
Getting a degree is not a sin. It will be a tool in God’s hand if your life is fully submitted to Him. If you need to get a degree, go ahead and do so.

Let us focus on Jesus and not what is happening,despite the COVID, Delta and Omnicron variant running rampage through the world, just remember God is in control , He is bigger than any pandemic, just turn our eyes upon Jesus and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His Glory and Grace……praying from Auckland,New Zealand 🙏🏼🌻✝️🕊
Dear Sisters and brothers, during this plandemic/scamdemic Great Deception before the antiChrist system, yes we need to turn our eyes and hearts to Jesus! We are reminded to always try/test the spirits to know whether they truly be of God or the false god of the world. "For God hath not given us a spirit of fear, but of love, and of power, and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7 Do not be afraid, Jesus is King!
@@PrayzGod im here cause i was singing some hymns in my head and thought this said when the things of earth grow strangely dim. Cause as you can see. This hoax has you nothing to fear. But then I realize that even if it were real there still is nothing to fear. Sunday law is coming. I hope i leave all earthly things behind before it arrives.
This was the hymn i heard playing in my head while i walked down the stairs the morning after i gave my life to Christ. And it was true, the world grew dim as i pondered the beauty of Jesus taking my sin on that cross. Priceless
I want to give my testimony I kept eyes upon Jesus during 1 of the worst storms I faced this year.Our Lord and savior Jesus completely restored my marriage and family.I give all the glory to Jesus and know he will answer each of your prayers keep the faith and eyes upon Jesus
First time listening to this song and I'm already crying. First time in a long time I've cried over a song and now I can't stop. If you ever feel down or discouraged or like you're not good enough, always remember that someone loves you and knows you better than anyone. He always knows how you feel no matter what you are going through big and small things.
May the Lord keep you in the bosom of His love and may your salvation, sanctification and consecration unto God be preserved, shining ever brighter unto the perfect day
I started singing this song the day before my brother's funeral and have felt it change my heart and make me a less selfish person. I prayed harder for him in 1 year, than I did my whole life. His fight brought me face to face with God and gave me a strength I can't describe. I'll be eternally great full for everything he taught me❤
What an astounding song. Soon and very soon I will be home with my Jesus. Just a few more weary days then light immortal. No more pain, no more fear, no more treachery, no more worry, no more sin, no more pain. Behold, Jesus makes all things new.
This is what Mommy told us to keep doing before she died last year. She said her life wouldn't have been in vain as long as her children were saved and followed Jesus. I wouldn't trade my parents for no amount of millions. Happy Thanksgiving and Keep your eyes on Jesus Beautiful Sons and Daughters of the Most High God!!!!🙏🔥🦃
Yes, let's all turn upon our Eyes to Jesus, even we are now facing this difficult time of this pandemic. He is our protector, healer, and provider. Nothing is impossible in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Who else is listening👂 to this in 2021???. I woke up ⬆️ this morning with this beautiful song in my spirit, so I had to come here to hear👂 it. I will turn my eyes 👀 👀 upon you Lord.
… looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith … (Hebrews 12:2). Born in 1863 in England, Helen Lemmel’s pastor father moved the family to the US state of Wisconsin when she was 12. From an early age, her parents were keenly aware of her profound singing voice, and in America she earned a reputation for her talent. She traveled through the American mid-west holding concerts. She moved to Germany in 1907 to refine her singing ability, and there met and married a wealthy European gentleman. After 4 years in Europe, as the fires of World War One smoldered, Helen returned to the US, touring with a mixture of her own patriotic songs and familiar hymns. At the pinnacle of fame tragedy struck. Helen went blind and her husband abandoned her, leaving her financially destitute. When asked by her friends how she was doing, Helen’s Christian faith led her to usually reply, I am fine in the things that count. While standing on a street corner in 1918, she was handed a small Christian tract written by Lilias Trotter, a missionary woman to Africa. A single line in the tract gripped her heart: So then turn your eyes upon Him, look full into His face and you will find that the things of earth will acquire a strange new dimness. Helen later wrote, I stood still and singing in my soul and spirit was the chorus, with no one conscious moment of putting word to word to make thyme or note to note to make melody. Her heart-song become the best known hymn of Helen Lemmel, Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. Helen later published a book for children called “Story of Bible” and over 500 hymns. In 1961, at the age of 97, still active in her small Baptist church in Seattle, Washington, Helen died materially impoverished, but spiritually wealthy in Christ Jesus, her Saviour. O soul, are you weary and troubled? No light in the darkness you see? There’s a light for a look at the Saviour, And life more abundant and free! 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.
Tkq n bless you for this wonderful rendition to Helen Lemmel .. her anointed spirit is still alive in her compositions ... It's touched me profoundly..n I can't stop thinking of that strong msg... AND THE THINGS OF EARTH SHALL GROW DIM IN THE LIGHT OF HIS GLORY AND GRACE Praise You Lord Jesus Christ Amen Hallelujah Ave Maria ✝️🙌🎀🙌✝️
Living sorrowful was not the will of God. Service to mankind His creation .. give abundantly more of Himself till overflowing. His greatest lament to His own apostles that He loved dearly they loved Him. Lamented oftentimes “why did you doubt? How must longer must I endure from this perverse generation.. here me know? You can pray too!
It's a wonderful song. The things of this world will grow strangely dim when you fully turn your eyes upon Jesus. His countenance will brighten the way
It has been nearly ten years since I moved to and live permanently in one of the richest and most peaceful country in the world..And now I realise that the true peace and joy can only be found in Jesus...
Jesus its like being with You in Heaven alone can give me peace right now. This pain i am feeling is too much. Only with You that this pain will stop. I can now relate on the pain of Your people Israel who up until now carry the pain of their past. Now i know why You Jesus cried so much to when You saw Lazarus Your friend was dead. That You know my pain. Our pain. Our grief. That why You endured the Cross for us
Whenever I look at my face without make up Nails with no polish No jewelry Contented with an honest job with little salary,,,I believe in these lyrics. The things of these earth have grown strangely dim since I found the true Christ. I am no longer attracted to the worldly standards of wealth and success. I just want to grow closer with God, to know His ways, to love Him and serve Him. I am totally sold out to the gospel of Christ and the only thing that motivates me in this world is the hope of the New Jerusalem and eternity with God Himself,, Hallelujah!
I didn't even know I knew this song, but I recently found myself singing the chorus over and over--I thank God for His Holy Spirit in me that brings songs like this to my mind--I know that I need to keep my eyes fixed on Jesus, the Author, Finisher and Perfecter of my faith!
Me too, all of a sudden i found myself singing that piece" turn your eyes upon Jesus" and after that i started looking for it here and i found this one. I must of heard many years ago and then i didnt hear it anymore. Til i started singing that tiny piece. It led me here. And i never get tired of hearing it. God bless you.
I'm sorry I took my eyes off you Yehushua I love you agape love you indefinitely for infinity and eternity I worship you and agape need desire and love u please forgive me now have mercy on me Jeshua.
I cannot believe as long as i have been going to church i never heard this song. I went to sleep the other night listening to Christian music and woke a couple of hours later as it came on. It hit me so deep in my soul it changed me. I got to meditating on the line Look Full in His wonderful face. I just tried to imagine looking in the face of the One who spoke the universe in to existence. HALLELUJAH!!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!
There are people who do not yet know the peace Jesus gives. But they can, if they are willing to surrender to Christ. We all face trials: family, work, health, finances. But the Bible gives us hope that we will come through and triumph. We just need to keep our eyes on Jesus. In John 16:33, Jesus said, "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
...a song.. i learn during my elemtree school.. way back in the 196+... Amenn.. I guess.. i am about to go home to THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.. ..BECOZ I IKNOW JESUAS WILL CALL ME SOONER THAN LATER.. AMEN...
Jesus help widows who are hurting right now wherever they are. Comfort them of their grieving. For them to also be led to this song, Your song. Jesus song. Help us widows, Jesus. Help us widows, Jesus.
Jesus i am praying for all Your people around the world who experienced atrocities in the hands of evil people. The women in Haiti. In little girls Nigeria, Africa , from the hands of the Boko Haram, and from other terrorists in Africa. Jesus, rescue them. Help them. As You helped me and rescued me by using Anthony Paredes to help me eacape. In Jesus Christ name, Amen
Such a beautiful song. Lord my heart longs for you. Looking forward to the day we finally get to go home and be with you. You are my hope in this dark world.
Today on Good Friday, I sit quietly and listening to this song. In the midst of the turmoil going on in this Nation, my eyes I turn upon Jesus and I'm reminded of the glorious Hope we have today! I praise and thank you JESUS! Thank you for loving me!❤ This is a great opportunity if you don't know Jesus to turn to HIM and be saved, you will have life and peace today. Also, if you know the LORD and have turned away, take the moment and turn to HIM because HE loves you!❤
I need this hymn. Going through another hard time with my wife. I need to overcome my anger and sadness and frustration. I need Jesus with the Holy Spirit to help me because I can't do it on my own. I need to forgive her but I need to ask for forgiveness for being angry and not behaving in a Christ like manner and be forgiving and understanding
O brother Doug... so sorry to hear the difficulties you are now experiencing. Your comment brought tears to my eyes as I reflected on my same battle with anger, frustration and forgiveness. I am praying for you and your wife. I am praying for your complete healing and for your joy to return. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil. 4:6-7
doug1863 dear friend, contemplate our Lord Jesus and his precious life, then asking for the presence of the Holy Spirit begin to practice His life. Remembering that your wife is a precious gift from God and that through her, our Heavenly Father and Creator is looking forward to teach you how strong is His desire to have an intimate relationship with you. From someone who cares
Johnny Carrasquillo Dear Bro , No Battle is too great for You to go thru bec thru Christ we are made lovable only love can cover a Multitude of Sins .Maybe there are areas in yur life that u need to think n reflect what you actually have done to made yur wife angry with U .If U know you are wrong , time to change yurself n Submit to God to ask God to change you that you can be pleasing with yur wife not yur own way but God's way .If u read proverbs in the Bible you will understand it all .God bless you .Have a great n promising refresh relationship with yur wife .Jesus Bless U Abundantly !
Going through a particularly tough time, I was Weeping in prayer. I've been saved and know well the flesh Weeping or otherwise...I heard the Lord ask me ..are you looking at your troubles and crying or at me??? Look upon Him..the solution...not upon the troubles...His light is enough...
This song has to be in our minds all the time. We tend to look away and distract ourselves pretty much. It reminds us of how our walk should be with our Lord Jesus Christ. Oh sin has no more dominion! Wow! Deep! If we really believe it, it is like that! Lets not dristract ourselves with so many things of this world, for this is not our home. Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face and things in earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace. Such a truth! All christians can relate to this! The more we look at his glory and grace, his face, the less we love the things of this world!
I lift my eyes toward the hills from which cometh my help, my help cometh from the Lord! Lord, turn our eyes upon and toward you in this very hour of human history!!! Lord, help us.

The song has changed my like . I now turn my eyes upon to Jesus every day . The spirit is with me. I get chills every time I hear Turn your eyes upon Jesus
I first heard this song in high school when I was a member of Eastwood Baptist Church here in Tulsa. It is where I was baptized. What a wonderful memory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jesus is faithful and just..His love is the greatesr gift in my life..trusting Him and depend on Him is the wisest dicision in life. He is the best friend and the best father ...I feel blessed ...as I do see His unconditional love for me in each day...
There's no better time to listen to such strong words as this. The world's turning inside out. The wrong things are now being righted by philosophies of various people. What better way to overcome than to turn your eyes upon Jesus? So that the things of earth are made strongly dim. Amen
Happy Sabbath my Father, happy Sabbath my Lord Jesus, happy Sabbath Spirit of Truth, happy Sabbath God's chosen. From the House of God the House of Prayer the House of Worship. God bless
A song that was sung around the piano in our home on many occasions! A beautiful reminder to turn our eyes to Jesus and let the things of earth grow strangely dim!!! Amen!
The words are so powerful. The chorus can calm and take us to Jesus immediately after starting to sing. The verses are so clear in their message. The tune is gentle and restful. Just right for the words. May we all remember to look to Jesus for everything, big or small and put Him first in our lives. May you be richly blessed as you follow Him. He loves you like no other. You are so precious to Him.
In this world of uncertainty this song touches my heart and reminds me to direct my thoughts and desires to the maker of the universe. His name is Yahweh the Savior. We can always have hope in knowing that he loves us and wants the very best for us. If you don't know him as Lord and Savior, may you accept him in your heart today and live this life with him as your anchor Amen🙏🙌
Please pray for my beloved granddaughter who is in so much need of turning her eyes upon Jesus. Sadly spoilt by her father she is so lacking in appreciation of all her mother does for her and it breaks my heart to see my beloved daughter, her mother ache in her heart in so many ways because of what is going on in this regard. May Our Heavenly Father, in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, draw this now twenty year old girl, with such great potential, draw her to Himself so that she will turn her eyes upon Jesus and be gloriously saved. Part of the problem is that sadly her father, apart from completely spoiling her has fallen into the deception of Pelagious, no belief in original sin and all else that goes with that. Please also pray for our Roman Catholic people, out of which God has wonderously saved us and also for many of our Protestant people in wrongly believe in the teaching of infant baptism. Greetings from Ireland.
This beautiful hymn was sung at our wedding almost 50 years ago. God has brought us through many ups and downs together as we turn our eyes upon Jesus.
I Just love this song. This song is so much of encouragement me at home after several times in hospital. The Lord bless everyone who gets the same joy from it. Love all who loves the Lord.
"Whatever it takes for God to get a person's total attention." Is my plea for all. In hope that they might have that chance to taste of "His Love". Found in "The Cross."
For such a time as this. Revelation 21:4 "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away!” Maranatha!
*I always enjoy country music but when I meet my parents in law I totally fell in love with this style of music. now they aren’t here anymore. First my mother in law 8 months ago got a message from God and one week ago my father in law got the same message. They are in better hands in better place. Country music is my only ways to bring them back to me. Thank you Mavis and Jim. I love you both forever for teaching me another way to enjoy life and love! 😢💖✨*
Jesus is the answer to all life's trouble, we all need to turn our lives to Him even in the midst of the turmoil going on in the world this is the time to really turn and seek His face..this song brings me the greatest revival of all

I hope you pray and repent daily glad to hear that
@Konstantin Ridaya pretty much spot on but probably way to harsh to actually reach or educate.
My dad would sing this to me when I was a child. He'd play the guitar by my bed and sing Turn your eyes upon jesus..... ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You has a great dad!
What a blessing and beautiful memory!
Wat a coincidence that right now I'm singing to my kids as I help them sleep 😇
How sweet! You're blessed

'Look full in His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow strangely dim...' How true.
I started singing this song the day before my brother's funeral and have felt it change my heart and make me a less selfish person. I prayed harder for him in 1 year, than I did my whole life. His fight brought me face to face with God and gave me a strength I can't describe. I'll be eternally great full for everything he taught me❤
What an astounding song. Soon and very soon I will be home with my Jesus. Just a few more weary days then light immortal. No more pain, no more fear, no more treachery, no more worry, no more sin, no more pain. Behold, Jesus makes all things new.
When I see the world today in its worst situation, this song gives me hope. No power of the world will have dominion over us when Jesus is with us.
This is what Mommy told us to keep doing before she died last year. She said her life wouldn't have been in vain as long as her children were saved and followed Jesus. I wouldn't trade my parents for no amount of millions. Happy Thanksgiving and Keep your eyes on Jesus Beautiful Sons and Daughters of the Most High God!!!!🙏🔥🦃

From an early age, her parents were keenly aware of her profound singing voice, and in America she earned a reputation for her talent. She traveled through the American mid-west holding concerts.
She moved to Germany in 1907 to refine her singing ability, and there met and married a wealthy European gentleman. After 4 years in Europe, as the fires of World War One smoldered, Helen returned to the US, touring with a mixture of her own patriotic songs and familiar hymns.
At the pinnacle of fame tragedy struck. Helen went blind and her husband abandoned her, leaving her financially destitute. When asked by her friends how she was doing, Helen’s Christian faith led her to usually reply, I am fine in the things that count.
While standing on a street corner in 1918, she was handed a small Christian tract written by Lilias Trotter, a missionary woman to Africa. A single line in the tract gripped her heart: So then turn your eyes upon Him, look full into His face and you will find that the things of earth will acquire a strange new dimness. Helen later wrote, I stood still and singing in my soul and spirit was the chorus, with no one conscious moment of putting word to word to make thyme or note to note to make melody. Her heart-song become the best known hymn of Helen Lemmel, Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus.
Helen later published a book for children called “Story of Bible” and over 500 hymns. In 1961, at the age of 97, still active in her small Baptist church in Seattle, Washington, Helen died materially impoverished, but spiritually wealthy in Christ Jesus, her Saviour.
O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s a light for a look at the Saviour,
And life more abundant and free!
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.
Tkq n bless you for this wonderful rendition to Helen Lemmel .. her anointed spirit is still alive in her compositions ... It's touched me profoundly..n I can't stop thinking of that strong msg... AND THE THINGS OF EARTH SHALL GROW DIM IN THE LIGHT OF HIS GLORY AND GRACE
Praise You Lord Jesus Christ
Amen Hallelujah Ave Maria
✝️🙌🎀🙌✝️
Living sorrowful was not the will of God. Service to mankind His creation .. give abundantly more of Himself till overflowing. His greatest lament to His own apostles that He loved dearly they loved Him. Lamented oftentimes “why did you doubt? How must longer must I endure from this perverse generation.. here me know? You can pray too!
It's a wonderful song. The things of this world will grow strangely dim when you fully turn your eyes upon Jesus. His countenance will brighten the way
It has been nearly ten years since I moved to and live permanently in one of the richest and most peaceful country in the world..And now I realise that the true peace and joy can only be found in Jesus...
which county is that?

@@penttimuhli9442 ok. thank you.
What a wonderful testimony! Praise the LORD!
I'm guessing Dubai. 😅 though it's irrelevant to his testimony!
Jesus its like being with You in Heaven alone can give me peace right now. This pain i am feeling is too much. Only with You that this pain will stop. I can now relate on the pain of Your people Israel who up until now carry the pain of their past. Now i know why You Jesus cried so much to when You saw Lazarus Your friend was dead. That You know my pain. Our pain. Our grief. That why You endured the Cross for us
This is by far my favorite rendition. Blessings to all!
Whenever I look at my face without make up
Nails with no polish
No jewelry
Contented with an honest job with little salary,,,I believe in these lyrics. The things of these earth have grown strangely dim since I found the true Christ. I am no longer attracted to the worldly standards of wealth and success.
I just want to grow closer with God, to know His ways, to love Him and serve Him.
I am totally sold out to the gospel of Christ and the only thing that motivates me in this world is the hope of the New Jerusalem and eternity with God Himself,,
Hallelujah!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I didn't even know I knew this song, but I recently found myself singing the chorus over and over--I thank God for His Holy Spirit in me that brings songs like this to my mind--I know that I need to keep my eyes fixed on Jesus, the Author, Finisher and Perfecter of my faith!
Me too, all of a sudden i found myself singing that piece" turn your eyes upon Jesus" and after that i started looking for it here and i found this one. I must of heard many years ago and then i didnt hear it anymore. Til i started singing that tiny piece. It led me here. And i never get tired of hearing it. God bless you.
I'm sorry I took my eyes off you Yehushua I love you agape love you indefinitely for infinity and eternity I worship you and agape need desire and love u please forgive me now have mercy on me Jeshua.
The things of earth grow strangely dim. Makes me realise what am I chasing? Do I really need all this
I pray 2 years later that those distractions have been lifted from you. And I know that your courage to ask has lifted others. Bless you.
I cannot believe as long as i have been going to church i never heard this song. I went to sleep the other night listening to Christian music and woke a couple of hours later as it came on. It hit me so deep in my soul it changed me. I got to meditating on the line Look Full in His wonderful face. I just tried to imagine looking in the face of the One who spoke the universe in to existence. HALLELUJAH!!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!
There are people who do not yet know the peace Jesus gives. But they can, if they are willing to surrender to Christ. We all face trials: family, work, health, finances. But the Bible gives us hope that we will come through and triumph. We just need to keep our eyes on Jesus.
In John 16:33, Jesus said, "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
Mike Morgan right👍

Today on Good Friday, I sit quietly and listening to this song. In the midst of the turmoil going on in this Nation, my eyes I turn upon Jesus and I'm reminded of the glorious Hope we have today! I praise and thank you JESUS! Thank you for loving me!❤ This is a great opportunity if you don't know Jesus to turn to HIM and be saved, you will have life and peace today. Also, if you know the LORD and have turned away, take the moment and turn to HIM because HE loves you!❤
The answer to life is to look to the savior! Love this song!
I need this hymn. Going through another hard time with my wife. I need to overcome my anger and sadness and frustration. I need Jesus with the Holy Spirit to help me because I can't do it on my own. I need to forgive her but I need to ask for forgiveness for being angry and not behaving in a Christ like manner and be forgiving and understanding
O brother Doug... so sorry to hear the difficulties you are now experiencing. Your comment brought tears to my eyes as I reflected on my same battle with anger, frustration and forgiveness. I am praying for you and your wife. I am praying for your complete healing and for your joy to return. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil. 4:6-7
doug1863 dear friend, contemplate our Lord Jesus and his precious life, then asking for the presence of the Holy Spirit begin to practice His life. Remembering that your wife is a precious gift from God and that through her, our Heavenly Father and Creator is looking forward to teach you how strong is His desire to have an intimate relationship with you. From someone who cares

Beautiful. Thank you
Going through a particularly tough time, I was Weeping in prayer. I've been saved and know well the flesh Weeping or otherwise...I heard the Lord ask me ..are you looking at your troubles and crying or at me???
Look upon Him..the solution...not upon the troubles...His light is enough...
Be encouraged! Emmanuel, GOD is with us!
God bless you! He loves you❤️
This song has to be in our minds all the time. We tend to look away and distract ourselves pretty much. It reminds us of how our walk should be with our Lord Jesus Christ. Oh sin has no more dominion! Wow! Deep! If we really believe it, it is like that! Lets not dristract ourselves with so many things of this world, for this is not our home. Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face and things in earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace. Such a truth! All christians can relate to this! The more we look at his glory and grace, his face, the less we love the things of this world!
I love Jesus because He loved me first. All thanks and praises be to the Lord my God Jesus Christ. In Christ alone. Amen.
I lift my eyes toward the hills from which cometh my help, my help cometh from the Lord! Lord, turn our eyes upon and toward you in this very hour of human history!!! Lord, help us.

😮 what a crystal clear beautiful voice
The song has changed my like . I now turn my eyes upon to Jesus every day . The spirit is with me. I get chills every time I hear Turn your eyes upon Jesus
I absolutely LOVE this beautiful hymn!! The words are so beautiful!! I LOVE JESUS SO MUCH!! He is my BEST FRIEND!!!
Played this at my mom's funeral, as a perfect witness to the lost. With prayer. Give the increase, Jesus.
I first heard this song in high school when I was a member of Eastwood Baptist Church here in Tulsa. It is where I was baptized. What a wonderful memory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jesus is faithful and just..His love is the greatesr gift in my life..trusting Him and depend on Him is the wisest dicision in life. He is the best friend and the best father ...I feel blessed ...as I do see His unconditional love for me in each day...
I like this song. It gives encouragement to us at times of difficult situations.

He will always be there my brother
I’m afraid and I turn my eyes to Jesus
This was my grandmas favourite song. We use to sing it with her. Sweet memomories
There's no better time to listen to such strong words as this. The world's turning inside out. The wrong things are now being righted by philosophies of various people. What better way to overcome than to turn your eyes upon Jesus? So that the things of earth are made strongly dim. Amen
Happy Sabbath my Father, happy Sabbath my Lord Jesus, happy Sabbath Spirit of Truth, happy Sabbath God's chosen. From the House of God the House of Prayer the House of Worship. God bless
I love this song. I love Jesus!
A song that was sung around the piano in our home on many occasions! A beautiful reminder to turn our eyes to Jesus and let the things of earth grow strangely dim!!! Amen!
The words are so powerful.
The chorus can calm and take us to Jesus immediately after starting to sing.
The verses are so clear in their message.
The tune is gentle and restful. Just right for the words.
May we all remember to look to Jesus for everything, big or small and put Him first in our lives.
May you be richly blessed as you follow Him. He
loves you like no other. You are so precious to Him.
In this world of uncertainty this song touches my heart and reminds me to direct my thoughts and desires to the maker of the universe. His name is Yahweh the Savior. We can always have hope in knowing that he loves us and wants the very best for us. If you don't know him as Lord and Savior, may you accept him in your heart today and live this life with him as your anchor Amen🙏🙌
Jesus, if this will comfort anyone, the truth Heaven is real, give the widows hope, that one day, we will smile again.
I was a wee child of 5 when I learned this song. Forward 57 years and the spiritual meaning has brought me through some tough times. Thank you, Jesus.
Please pray for my beloved granddaughter who is in so much need of turning her eyes upon Jesus. Sadly spoilt by her father she is so lacking in appreciation of all her mother does for her and it breaks my heart to see my beloved daughter, her mother ache in her heart in so many ways because of what is going on in this regard. May Our Heavenly Father, in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, draw this now twenty year old girl, with such great potential, draw her to Himself so that she will turn her eyes upon Jesus and be gloriously saved. Part of the problem is that sadly her father, apart from completely spoiling her has fallen into the deception of Pelagious, no belief in original sin and all else that goes with that. Please also pray for our Roman Catholic people, out of which God has wonderously saved us and also for many of our Protestant people in wrongly believe in the teaching of infant baptism. Greetings from Ireland.
A beautiful song indeed
Just came across it for the first time
This beautiful hymn was sung at our wedding almost 50 years ago. God has brought us through many ups and downs together as we turn our eyes upon Jesus.
Beautiful! I'm married 40. God is good!!
His promise Will Stand!!🧔
I sing this song at very special times. To love Jesus is my treasure.
Amen! Praise the Lord!! Hallelujah!!! Glory to God!!!!
To have a father to sing this too you ever night wow! What a blessing.
I Just love this song. This song is so much of encouragement me at home after several times in hospital. The Lord bless everyone who gets the same joy from it.
Love all who loves the Lord.
"Whatever it takes for God to get a person's total attention." Is my plea for all. In hope that they might have that chance to taste of "His Love". Found in "The Cross."
😭😭my God... for anybody who feels far from Jesus God, look in faith and with faith and call upon His name and you'll see His beautiful face😭😭😭
This song is so meaningful to me, indeed when I turn my eyes on Jesus Christ this world will indeed grow dim to me.
Reading so many testimonies about this hymn. Thank You for Your love, Lord Jesus!!
For such a time as this.
Revelation 21:4 "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away!” Maranatha!
*I always enjoy country music but when I meet my parents in law I totally fell in love with this style of music. now they aren’t here anymore. First my mother in law 8 months ago got a message from God and one week ago my father in law got the same message. They are in better hands in better place. Country music is my only ways to bring them back to me. Thank you Mavis and Jim. I love you both forever for teaching me another way to enjoy life and love! 😢💖✨*
Truly,the things of the world grow strangely dim when we turn our eyes upon Jesus
I was so troubled by the cares of this world, then I was reminded of this song...
Jesus is the savior of our life. Thank you for saving us from the death!
Jesus is the answer to all life's trouble, we all need to turn our lives to Him even in the midst of the turmoil going on in the world this is the time to really turn and seek His face..this song brings me the greatest revival of all
