Horizons

I always check horizons
To see what lies ahead,
Trying hard to be prepared
Just like my Daddy said.
You can’t know the future
But the pathway can be clear.
Keep your eyes on the horizon,
Face tomorrow without fear.

You can let your guard down,
Let your worries take control,
Face the day with blinders,
Let the devil have your soul,
Or you can make your mind up
To control your destiny.
Keep your eyes on the horizon
And set your spirit free.

There may be trouble up ahead,
It seems to be that way.
Simple doubts that block the sun
And turn blue skies to gray.
But I don’t worry ‘cause I know
It will work out in the end.
I’ll keep my eyes on the horizon
Like a trusted, faithful friend.

You can let your guard down,
Let your worries take control,
Face the day with blinders,
Let the devil have your soul,
Or you can make your mind up
To control your destiny.
Keep your eyes on the horizon
And set your spirit free.
