This hymn has a unique tune.

 
 1 

There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

There is life at this moment for thee;

Then look, sinner, look unto Him and be saved,

Unto Him who was nailed to the tree.

 

Look! Look! Look and live!

There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

There is life at this moment for thee.

 
 2 

Oh, why was He there as the Bearer of sin,

If on Jesus thy guilt was not laid?

Oh, why from His side flowed the sin-cleansing blood,

If His dying thy debt has not paid?

 

Look! Look! Look and live!

There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

There is life at this moment for thee.

 
 3 

It is not thy tears of repentance or prayers,

But the blood, that redeemeth the soul;

On Him, then, who shed it, thou mayest at once

Thy weight of iniquities roll.

 

Look! Look! Look and live!

There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

There is life at this moment for thee.

 
 4 

Then doubt not thy welcome, since God has declared

There remaineth no more to be done;

That once in the end of the world He appeared,

And completed the work He begun.

 

Look! Look! Look and live!

There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

There is life at this moment for thee.

 
 5 

Then take with rejoicing from Jesus at once

The life everlasting He gives;

And know with assurance, thou never canst die

Since Jesus, thy Righteousness, lives.

 

Look! Look! Look and live!

There is life for a look at the Crucified One,

There is life at this moment for thee.
