Pressing On

When the valley is deep

When the mountain is steep

When the body is weary

When we stumble and fall

When the choices are hard

When we're battered and scarred

When we've spent our resources

When we've given our all

In Jesus' name, we press on

In Jesus' name, we press on

Dear Lord, with the prize

Clear before our eyes

We find the strength to press on.

Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected;

but I press on,

that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.

Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended;

but one thing I do,
forgetting those things which are behind and

reaching forward to those things which are ahead,

I press toward the goal for the prize
of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind;

and if in anything you think otherwise,

God will reveal even this to you.

Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already attained,

let us walk by the same rule,

let us be of the same mind.

~Philippians 3:12-15

Believers make Christ all in all, and set their hearts upon another world.

If they differ from one another,

and are not of the same judgment in lesser matters,

yet they must not judge one another;

while they all meet now in Christ,

and hope to meet shortly in heaven.

Let them join in all the great things in which they are agreed,

and wait for further light as to lesser things wherein they differ.

~Matthew Henry on Philippians 3:12-15
