Press On

[verse one] It's' not that I have made it It's not that I've arrived I have not yet apprehended it But for this one thing, I strive To be more like my master To be more like my Lord Conformed to the image of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. [chorus] I press on Until I reach my goal Until of that one thing, I lay hold I press on to the prize The high calling of God in Christ I press on. I press on. [verse two] The things I thought were once worthwhile Those things I count as loss To say that self is crucified And nailed upon a cross I count all else as nothing I lay all else aside I have but one ambition For me to live is Christ [repeat chorus] [verse 3] So join me in this race, my friend Hurry, don't lag behind It won't be long til we see him Don't wait, 'cause there's no time. He who began a good work in you Won't quit until it's done Count on him; he's faithful and true So run til the race is won. [chorus 2] We press on until we reach our goal Until of that one thing, we lay hold We press on to the prize The high calling of God in Christ We press on. We press on. [repeat chorus 2] [tag] We press on We press on We press on Until we reach our goal [chorus 2] We press on until we reach our goal Until of that one thing, we lay hold We press on to the prize The high calling of God in Christ We press on. We press on. [repeat chorus 2] [tag] We press on We press on We press on Until we reach our goal [chorus 2] We press on until we reach our goal Until of that one thing, we lay hold We press on to the prize The high calling of God in Christ We press on until we reach our goal [instrumental outro]
