Lyrics John Mellencamp

John Mellencamp

Eyes on the Prize

Paul and Silas bound in jail

Had no money for to go their bail

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Paul and Silas began to shout

Doors popped open, and they walked out

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Only chains that we can stand

Are the chains of hand in hand

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Got my hand on freedom's plow

Wouldn't take nothing for it now

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Look what we've become

And the crosses, we hang on

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Hold on, yeah, hold on

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on

Hold on, yeah, hold on

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on
