I’m keeping my eyes,
set on Jesus’ coming
tis why this faith race
I keep on running.
For I want to be,
one of the first to see
Jesus in the clouds
coming for me.
I’m keeping my eyes,
watching for the signs
listening to the rumbles
of these the end times.
For I yearn to be,
with my Lord and Savior
and to be with Him
in the land of forever.
On Jesus’ next coming,
I’m keeping my eyes
for He is to me . . .
the real true prize!
~~~~~
I press toward the mark
for the prize of the high
calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Then we which are alive
and remain shall be caught
up together with them
in the clouds, to meet the
Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever
be with the Lord.
