Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus - Lyrics with Piano

4-hand piano arrangement of the hymn "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus" (hymn tune "Lemmel"), recorded September, 2016. Produced in Apple Logic Express 9.0 using Kontakt "Grandeur" virtual piano (Steinway D). Arrangement and recording copyright 2016 by Rick Betts.

Some of my earliest musical memories are of sitting at my grandmother's player piano, pumping the pedals and watching the action. I was fascinated that all of those notes could come from a roll of paper! I have no idea whether or not I ever heard this particular song on her player piano, but this 4-hand arrangement is reminiscent of the 1920's style of piano playing I remember from the piano rolls way back when.

I publish sheet music for most of my arrangements (available at http://www.scoreexchange.com/profiles/12568). I haven't written a score for this one as I'm not too sure anyone would want it. Let me know in the comments if you would be interested in seeing this written as a piano duet.

O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And a 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.

Through death into life everlasting
he passed, and we follow him there;
o’er us sin no more hath dominion—
for more than conquerors we are!

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.

His Word shall not fail you he promised;
believe him, and all will be well:
then go to a world that is dying,
his perfect salvation to tell!

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.
