“Yet I will look again.” Jonah 2. 4; 2 Chron. 6. 38-39

1 See a poor sinner, dearest Lord,
  Whose soul, encouraged by thy word,
  At mercy’s footstool would remain,
  And there would look, and look again.

2 How oft deceived by self and pride,
  Has my poor heart been turned aside;
  And, Jonah like, has fled from thee,
  Till thou hast looked again on me!

3 Ah! bring a wretched wanderer home,
  And to thy footstool let me come,
  And tell thee all my grief and pain,
  And wait and look, and look again.

4 Take courage, then, my trembling soul;
  One look from Christ shall make thee whole;
  Trust thou in him; ’tis not in vain;
  But wait and look, and look again.
