Today’s featured song: Keepin’ My Eyes On You by Twila Paris, from her 1982 album of the same name.

JM-31Track 9 on my 1984 tape recorded from the radio is a song to remind me to look to Jesus, and no one else, to be my source of joy and confidence. I cannot expect myself to be able to handle life, and no one else – not my church, my pastor, anyone in my family, even the person I admire the most – is able to always fully comfort me and keep me going.

I’m not looking behind me
At mistakes I’ve already made
Hope is living inside me
I believe that my debts are paid
Trusting You now
I know I can make it
I made a vow
I don’t want to break it

Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You, following You
My Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You
Following You, my Lord

There’s no good in comparing
With my friends who are serving You
Lord, all the grace that You’re sharing
Is enough for what I must do
Trusting You now
I know I can make it
I made a vow
And I’m not gonna break it

Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You, following You
My Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You
Following You, my Lord

I won’t look to the left or right
My only goal is keeping You in my sight

Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You
Following You, my Lord

Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You, following You
My Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You, following You
My Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You, I’m just following You
My Lord, I’m keeping my eyes on You
Following You
I’m just following You, my Lord
