Temptations may call you,
foes may assail- meet them with boldness and you will not fail
All the world offers is peril
and strife- meaning and purpose can be yours for life
when Christ is your present
your future you find- never turn back
there is nothing behind
He will outlast the end at
eternity's edge- and when life shall pass we shall still have his pledge.
So we will persevere- we live
in a mercy so severe
that all else shall fail in
its wake
For god never changes His
will for our sake
So when you put your hand to
the plow- never turn back for forever is now
He has set you upon his right track, now he is your future, there's no turning back
