Keep your eyes on Jesus
When the tidal waves of trouble 'round you roll
Keep your eyes on Jesus
He will calm the storms of life that toss your soul
Living in a world that's full of sorrow
We are tried and tempted every day
Knowing not the secrets of tomorrow
We find rescue when we watch and pray
Keep your eyes on Jesus
When the tidal waves of trouble 'round you roll
Keep your eyes on Jesus
He will calm the storms of life that toss your soul
In Matthew chapter 14, when the disciples were in the ship in the
Midst of the sea, being tossed with waves for the wind was contrary
In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went unto them walking on
The sea. And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they
Were troubled, saying, "It is the spirit," and they cried out for
Help. But straightway, Jesus spake unto them, saying, "Be of good
Cheer. It is I. Be not afraid." And Peter answered Him and said, "
If it be Thou, bid me come unto Thee on the water." And He said, "
Come." And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on
The water to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he
Was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, "Lord, save me!
" Peter was doing fine as long as he had his eyes on Jesus, but when
He looked away to the rolling waves about him, he began to sink
And immediately, Jesus stretched forth His hand and caught him and
Said unto him, "O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
" Being tossed in this life by disappointments and temptations, we
Are very much the same as this disciple. If we want to walk with
Jesus, we must keep our eyes on Him
And not the pleasures of this world
Keep your eyes on Jesus
When the tidal waves of trouble 'round you roll
Keep your eyes on Jesus
He will calm the storms of life that toss your soul
