GAZE UPON THE LORD
Gaze upon the Lord;
Gaze upon his face;
Gaze upon the one
Who holds you in his embrace.
Gaze upon his love
Gaze upon his coming poor
from heav'n above.
Look upon your Lord;
Look upon his way.
Look upon his heart,
which opens to each day.
Though he was despised,
The lowest of all men,
Look upon his sacred cross
which brings life again.
If you open to life's pain,
With him you shall reign;
Allow your heart to weep,
Then with him you'll rejoice.
Open to his cross,
the wounds of each day's love,
Then you'll know the splendour
of his kingdom above.
Gaze upon his life;
Gaze upon his love;
Gaze upon his coming poor from heaven above.
Saint Clare of Assisi
