Focus On Glory
Hezekiah Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To make the right decisions
The answers never come right away
Today someone is worried
The questions in their mind
How can I get what I need without delay
Long and yet so hard
And as you go along the sunshine might seem dim
Oh don't you give up, and please don't give in
You'll be blessed if your mind stays on Him
Focus on glory; you won't make it on your own
Focus on glory, and keep singing joyous songs
Oh what joy to know, that in Him
We're on top of the world.
Sometimes friends get few
Don't know where to turn
It seems you're in a struggle all alone
Don't give up stay in the fight
Keep Jesus clear in your sight
Trust Him, you can't go wrong
There are times you may worry
But keep your head to the sky
Jesus knows your troubles
He'll dry your weeping eyes
Just keep your mind clean
And hold on to your dreams
He'll be there to pick you up each time your fall
Focus on glory; you won't make it on your own
Focus on glory, and keep singing joyous songs
Oh what joy to know, that in Him
We're on top of the world.
Don't ever change your mind
Fortunes may come and go
But only in Jesus will you go
Focus on glory; you won't make it on your own
Focus on glory, and keep singing joyous songs
Oh what joy to know
That in Him we're on top
In Jesus we're on top
In Him we're on top of the world
