Turn your eyes

"Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus" is a hymn written by Helen Lemmel. It was performed by Alan Jackson on his album "Precious Memories". Third Day has also performed a version of the song in a medley along with several other artists. I woke up this morning with the chorus of the Third Day version of the song running through my head. Those words are powerful. Simple, but powerful.
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
Here Michael W. Smith is performing the hymn. It's not the best quality sound, but you'll get the idea.
