Where are your eyes fixed?

My wife and my daughters have gotten a song in my head that I cannot get out. At least 3 times on the way down, twice when we were driving around the beach, and then 2 more times coming home this song was playing on the radio. I loved listening to my wife and daughters singing this song loud and in praise to Jesus. I want to share the lyrics with you tonight. The message in the lyrics is very important for us to hear. Where are your eyes fixed???

"Fix My Eyes"
Hit rewind
Click delete
Stand face to face with the younger me
All of the mistakes
All of the heartbreak
Here's what I'd do differently

I'd love like I'm not scared
Give when it's not fair
Live life for another
Take time for a brother
Fight for the weak ones
Speak out for freedom
Find faith in the battle
Stand tall but above it all
Fix my eyes on you

I learned the lines and talked the talk
(everybody knows that, everybody knows that)
But the road less traveled is hard to walk

(everybody knows that, everybody knows)
It takes a soldier
Who knows his orders
To walk the walk I'm supposed to walk

And love like I'm not scared
Give when it's not fair
Live life for another
Take time for a brother
Fight for the weak ones
Speak out for freedom
Find faith in the battle
Stand tall but above it all
Fix my eyes on you

The things of Earth are dimming
In the light of Your glory and grace
I'll set my sights upon Heaven
I'm fixing my eyes on you
I'm fixing my eyes on you
I'm fixing my eyes

Love like I'm not scared
Give when it's not fair
Live life for another
Take time for a brother
Fight for the weak ones
Speak out for freedom
Find faith in the battle
Stand tall but above it all
Fix my eyes on you
