Keep Your Eyes On the Prize - Live

Lyrics

Paul and Silas bound in jail
 Had no money for to go their bail
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Paul and Silas thought they was lost
 Dungeon shook and the chains come off
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Freedom's name is mighty sweet
 And soon we're gonna meet
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 I got my hand on the gospel plow
 Won't take nothing for my journey now
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Hold on, hold on
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Soozie!
 Only chain that a man can stand
 Is that chain o' hand on hand
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 I'm gonna board that big greyhound
 Carry the love from town to town
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Hold on, hold on
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Hey!
 Hey!
 Now only thing I did was wrong
 Stayin' in the wilderness too long
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 The only thing we did was right
 Was the day we started to fight
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Hold on, hold on
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 One, two!
 (The only thing we did was wrong)
 (Staying in the wilderness too long)
 (Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on)
 Woah, woah!
 (The only thing we did was right)
 (Was the day we started to fight)
 (Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on)
 Hold on, hold on
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Hold on, hold on
 Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
 Ain't been to heaven but I been told
 Streets up there are paved with gold
