Written by Helen H. Lemmel in 1922, this beloved gospel hymn calls believers to fix their gaze on Jesus, promising that earthly distractions will fade in the light of his glory and grace. It remains one of the most recognizable devotional choruses in Protestant hymnody.

Turn your eyes
upon Jesus,
look full in his
wonderful face, (wonderful face,)

and the things of earth
will grow strangely dim
in the light of his
glory and grace.
