Representative Text

1 When upon life’s journey you may think there’s none to care,
When your heart seems breaking with its sorrow and despair;
Jesus stands beside you, all your burdens glad to share,
Fix your eyes upon the cross.

Refrain:
Jesus is near you he comes to be your Guide,
He’ll bear your ev’ry loss,
Fix your eyes upon the cross.

2 When your sky is darkened with a heavy clouds of sin,
When your soul is troubled, and you have no peace within;
Lift your eyes to heaven, light and joy will then begin,
Fix your eyes upon the cross. [Refrain]

3 When the tempter whispers that the crown is not for you,
Tell him you have found the promises of God are true;
Put your trust in Jesus he will surely help you thro’,
Fix your eyes upon the cross. [Refrain]
