Faint, Yet Pursuing



Faint, Yet Pursuing

Are you growing weary
In the fight of faith?
Exhausted from the battle?
Dreary from the race?
 
Do you feel like quitting?
Surrendering to the foe?
Throwing in the towel?
No get up and go?
 
Keep on marching forward!
Keep on pressing on!
Though weary keep pursuing
Just like Gideon.*
 
In Christ there is endurance.
In Christ you'll go the length.
In Christ you have the victory,
Through His grace and strength.
 
Brother keep pursuing;
The finish line is near.
Sister keep contending;
Christ is almost here!
 
Judges 8:4
"And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them".

Galatians 6:9
"And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not".
