# Eyes Forward
**Verse 1:**
I'm not counting what I left behind
The miles I've run or the hills I've climbed
There's a finish line I've never seen
But I know it's waiting there for me
Every step I take, I take in stride
Not by sight, but I walk by faith tonight
The past can't hold what grace set free
So I'm running light, and I'm running clean
**Chorus:**
Eyes forward, heart steady
I'm already where I need to be
In the race, but not alone
Every step is leading home
To the upward call, the victor's crown
I won't look back, I won't look down
Eyes forward, pressing on
I'm running till the running's done
**Verse 2:**
There's a cloud of witnesses all around
They finished strong, now they cheer me on
Every burden that would weigh me down
I'm laying it aside, I'm moving on
I'm not striving for what I've already won
The prize was paid for by the Son
I'm just running into what He's done
Just running to the Risen One
**Chorus:**
Eyes forward, heart steady
I'm already where I need to be
In the race, but not alone
Every step is leading home
To the upward call, the victor's crown
I won't look back, I won't look down
Eyes forward, pressing on
I'm running till the running's done
**Bridge:**
Forgetting what is behind
Reaching for what's ahead
I'm alive, I'm alive
In the calling He said
This temporary light affliction
Can't compare to the glory waiting
So I run with perseverance
Fixing my eyes on Jesus
**Final Chorus:**
Eyes forward, heart steady
He who began it will complete it
In the race, but not alone
Every step is leading home
To the upward call, I'm running free
He's the author and the finisher in me
Eyes forward, pressing on
I'll be running till I'm running home
**Outro:**
One day the race will fade away
And faith will turn to sight
But until that golden day breaks through
I'm keeping my eyes forward
Eyes on You
