From the recording Album 6 Philippians & Colossians
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Paul wrote from his prison, with a fire in his soul,
To know the Lord completely, was his one and only goal.
Forgetting what’s behind me, I’ll strain for what’s ahead,
Running toward the Savior, by His Spirit I am led!
(Chorus)
Press on to the goal, with Jesus as my prize,
Running for His glory, with my eyes on the skies!
No looking back, His call is leading me.
Press on to the goal, for eternity!
(Verse 2)
The world may try to hold me, with its fleeting, empty ways,
But Christ’s surpassing value, sets my heart on Him ablaze.
I’ll run with holy passion, His righteousness my aim,
Pressing toward the Savior, to the glory of His name!
(Chorus)
Press on to the goal, with Jesus as my prize,
Running for His glory, with my eyes on the skies!
No looking back, His call is leading me.
Press on to the goal, for eternity!
(Bridge)
Oh, His love’s my motivation, His grace my strength to run,
I’ll keep my eyes on Jesus, ‘til the final race is won!
(Verse 3)
When I cross that final finish, where His glory fills the land.
I’ll praise the One who led me, with His ever-loving hand.
‘Til then I’ll keep on running, with His call my heart’s desire,
Press on to the goal, with His Spirit’s holy fire!
(Chorus)
Press on to the goal, with Jesus as my prize,
Running for His glory, with my eyes on the skies!
No looking back, His call is leading me.
Press on to the goal, for eternity!
(Outro)
No looking back, His call is leading me.
Press on to the goal, for eternity!
