Keep Your Eyes Upon Jesus
(Clinton Collins)

A simple song about faith. I wanted to write an old sounding gospel song with a familiar theme. Taking our eyes off of ourselves and unto Him.
Keep Your Eyes Upon Jesus
There's a light
That shines in darkness
And it shines
So bright and warm
Keep your eyes upon Jesus
And he'll hold you in his arms
There's an anchor
In stormy waters
That will keep you from drifting far
Keep your eyes upon Jesus
And he'll lead you safely home
I've been caught up within it's current
Tossed and pulled by my own fears
Now I know there are no reasons
For me to wander from here
There's a love
That will last forever
When all else
Has come and gone
Better keep your eyes upon Jesus
And in your heart carry a song
One you can sing with all the angels
And those who lay down their own lives
And on that day that final hour
Your thirst will be satisfied
