Eyes fixed upon Jerusalem,
Set straight upon the cross,
All around is chaos-
But His focus is not lost

He drank from His Father's cup, (Matt 6:42)
Yea, "let" His will be done, (Is 43:13)
The Father has given all into His hand,
For He loveth the Son (John 3:35)

A peace that passeth understanding, (Phil. 4:7)
A peace that has no end, (Is 9:7)
For the joy that was set before him, (Hebrews 12:2)
He endured until the end (Matt 24:13)

Can we keep our eye focused, (Matt 6:22)
Counting all things but loss, (Phil 3:8 )
Laying up treasures in heaven, (Matt 6:21)
Where moths cannot corrupt (Matt 6:19)

A face set steadfast upon Jerusalem, (Luke 9:51)
The city of the great King, (Psalm 48:2)
With mercy and truth before thee, (Psalm 89:14)
Safely nestled under His wing (Matt 23:3)
