We Press On
ARTISTS
Written by the Tim & Emily Miller Family.
DESCRIPTION
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.” (Heb 12:1-3)
We Press On is part of the Christ The Wisdom, Christ The Power album.

We Press On
LYRICS
Verse 1
Struck down, perplexed, but not in despair
Hard-pressed, on every side, but still You’re always there
Our rock, our strength, our shield, strong tower
You are the Christ, of God the wisdom and the power
Chorus
When we are weak God that’s when You are strong
You give us strength our Father, to carry on
Your grace sufficient Master, through every test
Your power made perfect, Jesus, in our distress
Perfecter of our faith, Lord, on You we fix our eyes
The victor’s crown before us, we press on toward the prize
Verse 2
Faint hearts, weak knees, yet somehow we stand
Like men condemned to die, yet still we’re in Your hands
Our boast, our song, the hope of the nations
You are the Christ of God, our light and our salvation
Chorus Repeat
Bridge
Prize
For the joy ahead we fight the good fight
(Emily Bible verse)
Final
Glory to the Father, glory to the Son, glory to the Spirit, blessed Three-in- One
In just a little while now, we’ll be clothed in white
No more death and shadow, no more dread of night
As pillars in Your temple, forever we will sing
Hallelujah, the grave is vanquished, death where is your sting!
