Hymn Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross #2 - Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

For the second challenge for this year, Patter has given us the Hymn - Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. With my Digital page which features the hymn I have added a little note about it which I plan on doing each time that there is some memory item about the hymn that I would like to share. When my husband and I attended Liberty Community Church the chorus of this hymn was sung often and I did not realise it was part of  a hymn. I thought it was just a chorus.

When searching for what scriptures spoke to me with inspiration from this hymn I could not go past the scripture that Patter also used - Hebrews 12:2. But I did find a verse in the Psalms which I feel goes so well with it. We need to turn our eyes away from the things of this world to keep them focused on "looking unto Jesus". 

As planned I have created a digital page for the Hymn and a double-sided papercraft piece for the scriptures but I needed to type up the scriptures so used my digital software so I could make it make the hymn page.
For this digital page I used a kit called " Afternoon Delight" by Victoria Feemster and the eye brush is by Anime and the hymn sheet was found on the web.
