11778. Keep Your Eyes On Jesus

1 Would you travel safely thro’ this world below,
Sure of faithful guidance everywhere you go?
Overcome all evil every passing day?
Keep your eyes on Jesus ell along the way!

Refrain:
Keep your eyes on Jesus, follow where He leads;
He will bear your burden, satisfy your needs;
Keep your eyes on Jesus every passing day;
Keep your eyes on Jesus all along the way!

2 Would you live more fully in the perfect love?
Knowing your petitions will be heard above;
Trust His precious promise, each command obey,
Keep your eyes on Jesus all along the way! [Refrain]

3 Would you be a blessing unto all you meet,
Be a willing listener at the Master’s feet?
Heir to His own kingdom, land of endless day?
Keep your eyes on Jesus all along the way! [Refrain]
