[Chorus]
D G
Keep your eyes on Jesus

When the tidal waves of trouble round you roll

Keep your eyes on Jesus

He will calm the storms of life that toss your souls

Living in a world that?s full of sorrow

We are tried and tempted everyday

Knowing not the secret of torrow
D A D
We find rescue when we watch him pray
[Chorus]
D G
Keep your eyes on Jesus

When the tidal waves of trouble round you roll

Keep your eyes on Jesus
D A D
He will calm the storms of life that toss your soul
[RECITATION BY JOHNNY CASH]
D
In Matthew chapter fourteen
G
When the Disciples were in a ship
D A
In the midst of the sea being tossed with waves when the wind was contrary
G D G
In the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them walking on the sea
D A
And when the Disciples saw him walking on the sea
D
They were troubled saying ?it is a spirit? and they cried out for help
G D G
But straightway Jesus spake unto them saying
D A
?Be of good cheer it is I be not afraid?
E D
And Peter answered him and said
G
?Lord if it be thou let me come unto thee on the water?
D
And he said ?come?
A D
And when Peter was come down out of the ship
He walked on the water to go to Jesus
A G
But when he saw the wind boisterous
D
He was afraid and beginning to sink
A
He cried sayin? ?Lord save me?
C D G D
Peter was doin? fine as long he had his eyes on Jesus
G
But when he look away at the rollin? wave about
D A
He begin to sink
D
And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand
G
And caught him saying ?Oh thou of little faith wherefore didst thou doubt?
And in this life being tossed
C A
With trials and temptations
Em D G
We are very much the same as this Disciple
If we want to walk with Jesus
We must keep our eyes on Him
And not the pleasures of this world
[Chorus]
D G
Keep your eyes on Jesus
D A
When the tidal waves of trouble round you roll
D G
Keep your eyes on Jesus
D A D
He will calm the storms of life that toss your soul
