Keep My Eyes on You

When my neighbor lets me down,
As he will sometimes do,
Give me patience with him
And keep my eyes on You.

When a Winter's day seems dreary
And the sun is hiding, too,
When I begin to grumble and complain,
Lord, keep my eyes on You.

For through this world holds heartaches,
Tears and sorrows, too,
I have the strength to persevere
When I keep my eyes on You.
