Lyrics
CAST MY EYES UPON HIS FACE
Jesus stretched out His hand to touch us
And they nailed it to the cross
Someone fashioned Him a crown of thorns
His loved ones mourned the loss
He asked for a drink of water
The guards they gave Him none
Then as He finally breathed His last
He said Father it is done
They took Him down from that cross
And put Him in a borrowed tomb
He was fulfilling Biblical prophesies
That began in a virgin?s womb
On the third day He was risen
As you may have heard
Now He sits by God in Heaven
As it tells us in the Word
Chorus
Jesus stretched out His hand to touch me
He died for me there on that cross
His precious blood washed away my sin
But His dying there was the cost
Now I?m leaning on the Savior
And by His mercy and His grace
One day I will join Him in Heaven
And cast my eyes upon His face
Break
Jesus stretched out His hand and touched me
He touched my heart He made me whole
And thru the hope that He instills in me
I no longer worry for my soul
For I?ve given my soul and heart to him
And by His mercy and His grace
I?ll see Him one day in Heaven
And cast my eyes upon His face
Repeat Chorus
