Pressing On

Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.

Philippians 3:12

I’m not there yet...

not even close

Sometimes I see it...

my heavenly goal

Over the crest of life’s hill

I can catch the faint sight

but then the sun goes down

and in fading light

I press on

It’s getting near...

my final day

when I will be home

with Jesus to stay

The journey is constant

as I take the path

that will only end

at my death...

So I press on

I want to see Jesus...

make life with Him my own

And I long to be forever

in my Savior’s heavenly home

I can do this because

He first saved me

I will dwell with Him

In a glorious eternity...

I will press on
