Guard Your Heart

by Steve Green

on People Need The Lord (1994), The Mission (1989)

Oh, be careful, little eyes, what you see
Oh, be careful, little eyes, what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh, be careful, little eyes, what you see

What appears to be harmless glance
Can turn to romance and homes are divided
Feelings that should never have been
Awakened within, tearing the heart in two
Listen, I beg of you:

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
Don't trade it for treasure
Don't give it away
Guard your heart
Guard your heart
As a payment for pleasure
It's high price to pay

For a soul that remains sincere
With a conscience clear
Guard your heart

The human heart is easily swayed
And often betrayed at the hand of emotion
You dare not leave the outcome to chance
We must choose in advance or live with the agony
Such needless tragedy

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
Don't trade it for treasure
Don't give it away
Guard your heart
Guard your heart
As a payment for pleasure
It's high price to pay

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
Don't trade it for treasure
Don't give it away
Guard your heart
Guard your heart
As a payment for pleasure
It's high price to pay

For a soul that remains sincere
With a conscience clear
Guard your heart
For a soul that remains sincere
With a conscience clear
Guard your heart
