lyrics

“Don’t Look Back” by Hal Cannon ASCAP

Don’t look back, slows you down
Don’t look back, don’t watch the ground
See ahead, smile bright
Trust your feet and face the light

Look around, a beauty day
Sun and air will lead the way
Just move on, let beauty flow
It’s your move; it's yes, or no

Flows the water to the sea
We can fight or let it be
Just relax and drink it in
Feel the current from within

It’s the comfort of tradition
That can lead us to submission
Just stay true and try to be kind
Truly seek and ye shall find

Petition: May we live in faith, one step at a time
