Jesus Lord We Look To Thee – Hymn Lyric
Jesus, Lord, we look to thee,
Let us in thy name agree:
Show thyself the Prince of peace;
Bid all strife for ever cease.
Make us of one heart and mind,
Courteous, pitiful, and kind,
Lowly, meek in thought and word,
Altogether like our Lord.
Let us for each other care,
Each the other’s burden bear;
To thy church the pattern give,
Show how true believers live.
Free from anger and from pride,
Let us thus in God abide;
All the depths of love express,
All the heights of holiness.
Meaning of Jesus Lord We Look To Thee
Jesus, Lord We Look to Thee: Bringing Peace to Our Hearts and Lives
In our world filled with chaos and strife, where it seems like peace is often hard to find, we turn our hearts and minds to Jesus, our Lord and Savior. We look to Him for guidance and strength, knowing that in His name, we can find unity and harmony.
When we say, “Jesus, Lord, we look to thee,” we are calling upon the Prince of Peace, who has the power to calm the storms in our lives and bring tranquility to our souls. We seek His presence in our hearts, asking Him to help us let go of our differences and disagreements, and to embrace the true meaning of peace.
To experience this peace, we must learn to be of one heart and mind. This means that we should strive to be united, not only in our beliefs but also in our actions. We should treat one another with kindness and compassion, just as Jesus taught us. Being courteous, pitiful, and kind towards others will help us create an atmosphere of understanding and love.
In addition to being united, we should also strive to be humble and meek in our thoughts and words. Jesus was the perfect example of humility, always putting others before Himself. In imitating Him, we can become more like our Lord and grow in our character as His followers. When we practice humility, we are more willing to listen to others, to consider their perspectives, and to find common ground.
Moreover, let us not forget the importance of caring for one another. As members of the church, we are called to bear each other’s burdens. When one of us is experiencing difficulty or hardship, we are to offer our support and help lighten the load. By doing so, we reflect the pattern set by Jesus Himself, who showed immense love and care for His disciples and those around Him.
Anger and pride are two emotions that often hinder the establishment of peace in our lives. We must strive to free ourselves from these negative feelings and instead allow God’s love to dwell in our hearts. When we let go of anger and pride, we make room for forgiveness, compassion, and understanding. Our relationships are enriched, and we can live in harmony with one another.
In seeking peace, we also strive to express the depths of love and the heights of holiness in our lives. Love is a powerful force that has the ability to bridge gaps and heal wounds. As we love one another as Jesus loved us, we become living examples of His teachings. Moreover, holiness is not just about being morally upright; it is about reflecting God’s image in our lives and striving to become more like Him each day.
As we come together in the name of Jesus, let us remember that finding peace is not just about our personal well-being; it is about representing His love and grace to the world. Our unity and love for one another should be a testimony of what it means to be a true believer. When others see us living out these principles, they are drawn to the hope and peace that only Jesus can bring.
In conclusion, as we sing the hymn “Jesus, Lord We Look to Thee,” let it serve as a reminder that true peace comes from our Lord and Savior. By seeking His guidance and following His example, we can create a world where peace reigns. Let us be of one heart and mind, caring for one another and reflecting the love and holiness of our Lord. May our lives be a living testimony to the power of Jesus to bring peace to our hearts and lives. Jesus, Lord, we look to thee, knowing that in your name, all strife can cease.
