Pressing On


I'm pressing on to higher ground

  Leaving behind the broad, easy way

No time to waste on this world's cares

  Too much labor in the vineyard of the Lord



With joy we bear His precious seed

  Bag full of truth the words full of grace

The time it takes to finish the task

  One life lived for Jesus nothing more or less



Press on pilgrim soldier the end draws near

  Your time is not wasted when living for Him

He waits for the Day for You to appear

  Before Him at His throne to receive your reward



Press on fellow traveler who carries the cross

  Don't look back at this world corrupting in sin

Look straight before at His highest call

  One day you will finish and your rest there awaits!
