Once you have joined the race of faith and started down the track,
just fix your eyes upon the goal ahead, and don’t look back.
A glance behind is all it takes to throw you out of whack
by causing you to stumble or to swerve, so don’t look back.
For sin is always in pursuit and seeking to attack.
But sin can never overtake you, if you don’t look back.
“Remember Lot’s wife,” Jesus said. What was that woman’s fault?
She looked back longingly, and so became a post of salt.
Of Sodoms and Gomorrahs in this world there is no lack.
So leave them all behind you, and remember: DON’T LOOK BACK!
