Verse 1
Fix your eyes on Him, let us look to the Lord.
Open your ears to Him, that we may hear His Words.
Jesus, the hope of all time. Jesus, the hope of our lives
Verse 2
Keep your mind on Him, let it dwell on the Lord.
All knees bend down, let us worship the Lord.
Jesus, the love of all time. Jesus, the love of our lives
Chorus 1
The redeemer of all of us, redeems us for love.
Paying the price for us, with His Holy blood
Hung on the cross to die, nailed to its arms
Abandoned and spit upon, the sweet lamb of God.
Spoken: ISAIAH 53:1-3
1 Who hath believed our report?
and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant,
and as a root out of a dry ground:
he hath no form nor comeliness;
and when we shall see him,
there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows,
and acquainted with grief:
and we hid as it were our faces from him;
he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Verse 3
Be His name on our lips, speak out and be heard.
Be praying for all, spreading His Word.
Jesus, the hope of all time. Jesus, the hope of our lives
Verse 4
Keep His name in your heart, walk the paths of the Lord.
Lift your arms up to Him, make way for the Lord.
Jesus, the love of all time. Jesus, the love of our lives
Chorus 2
Like a lamp on a light stand, shining forth bright
Bring the word to the world, a shower of light
Let no one perish, from lack of the word,
Sing from the mountain tops, His voice will be heard.
Spoken: ISAIAH 53:4-6
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs,
and carried our sorrows:
yet we did esteem him stricken,
smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities:
the chastisement of our peace was upon him;
and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned every one to his own way;
and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all

Nails of the cross, what a difference they made, Nails of the cross, the price Jesus did pay.
Nails of the cross, He died without praise. He died as God’s offering, He died and was raised.
Nails of the cross, what a difference they made, Nails of the cross, by Jesus blood we are saved.
Nails of the cross, on us He did gaze. He gave up His life for us, let us give Him praise.
Verse 1a
Fix your eyes on Him, let us look to the Lord.

Jesus, the hope of all time. Jesus, the hope of our lives
Verse 2a
Keep your mind on Him, let it dwell on the Lord.
All knees bend down, let us worship the Lord.
Jesus, the love of all time. Jesus, the love of our lives
