Turning thy face from all the past, On to the goal keep pressing; All of the weights from off thee cast, On to the goal keep pressing. See in the distance there arise Glorious mansions in the skies, Waiting for thee—a wondrous prize— On to the goal keep pressing.
Refrain: On, on, on to the goal! Jesus will add His blessing: On, on, on to the goal! On to the goal keep pressing.
Never mind what the others do, On to the goal keep pressing; They cannot run the race for you, On to the goal keep pressing. Whether they run or turn aside, Whether in sin they still abide, Fixing thine eyes on Him who died, On to the goal keep pressing.
Forward and upward, fainting not, On to the goal keep pressing; Bearing whatever falls thy lot, On to the goal keep pressing. Trust in the Lord for strength today, “He is my helper,” boldly say, Angels will guard thee on thy way, On to the goal keep pressing.
Jesus a crown holds out to thee, On to the goal keep pressing; Heavenly glory thine shall be, On to the goal keep pressing. Happiness that no tongue can tell, Ever to praises shall impel, Safe in His presence thou shalt dwell, On to the goal keep pressing.
