Flight

Oh we can flee from temptations that come over us

But we can't flee from the trials to come

We can flee from the dangers when we can recall

By what we flee to and what flee from.

So lift up your eyes

Look and see Jesus

Keep your eyes on the prize

And know that he sees us.

When I look to Jesus by the way I look and the way I feel

When the world comes in and it tries to steal

All the joy that I have ever known

I turn to Jesus alone.

When I look to him with my eyes of faith

When the eyes of my heart meets his eyes of grace

I'll ever abide and I'll never replace

The hope I have in Him.

Avert my eyes from the worldly ways

Put on the new man take off the old man ways.

So lift up your eyes

Look and see Jesus

Keep your eyes on the prize

And know that he sees us.

When I look to Jesus by the way I look and the way I feel

When the world comes in and it tries to steal

All the joy that I have ever known

I turn to Jesus alone.

(I'm a great believer in fleeing.)
