Eye On the Prize
A thought just crossed my mind
Where would I be if I did call you mine
No this life is no longer my own
No greater love has ever been shown
Since my first day
Lord, you have been there to guide my way
There is no way I’m going to let this world bring me down
Someday soon I’m going to claim my crown
I’m just here for a short stay
I will be there with you on celebration day
The path is long and narrow
But I know I’ll make it with you by my side
No more need to look to the left or right
Your word has become my new sight
Keeping my eyes on the Lord above
Living in the comfort of his love
I have come to realize
I must keep my eyes on the Prize
