Set your eyes on the prize
Results that do not fade
Everlasting trophies
Rewards that don’t degrade
Why strive for what is added
And then ignore the target
Don’t let your pursuit be misguided
Adjust before it’s late
Don’t take your eyes off the mark
Don’t fall for these distractions
Of daily needs being met
God has set a higher target
His kingdom to be gained
His righteousness attained
God’s nature in you matured
His power through you expressed
Why strive for what is added
And then ignore the target
Don’t let your pursuit be misguided
Adjust before it’s late
Seek first the kingdom
of Heaven and righteousness
Seek first the Kingdom
And everything else will be added.
Why strive for what is added
And then ignore the target
Don’t let your pursuit be misguided
Adjust before it’s late
