Sara Groves - Eyes On the Prize Lyrics

Paul and Silas, bound in jail,
Got no money for their bail
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Paul and Silas thought they lost,
The dungeon shook and the chains fell off,
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Freedom's name is mighty sweet,
and one day soon we are gonna meet.
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Got my hand on the gospel plow,
Won't take nothing for the journey now.
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Chorus:
The wait is slow,
And we've so far to go.
Keep your eyes on the prize, (x2)
Hold on.

The only chain a man can stand
is that chain of hand in hand,
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Ain't no man on earth control
The weight of glory on a human soul.
Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Chorus

When you see a man walk free,
It makes you dream of jubilee.

When you see a child walk free,
It makes you dream of jubliee.

When you see a family free,
It makes you dream of jubilee.

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.
