Pressing On




Pressing On

The vision of heaven's Glory,
Is far greater than all our trials,
Empowering to keep striving
And to run that extra mile.

Pressing on towards the mark
To obtain that cherished prize,
Forgetting all behind us
With that goal all focalized.

With concentrated effort,
Making the most of every day,
As good stewards of His blessings
To show the lost the way.

Remembering we are not our own
But have been crucified with Christ,
The temple of the Holy Ghost
To lead surrendered lives.

Pressing on towards that mark
Never looking back
Eyes upon the Savior
To keep us right on track.
