I'm Going Through – No. 672

Lord, I have started

To walk in the light,

That shines on my pathway,

So clearly, so bright;

I bade the world

And its follies adieu,

And now with my Savior

I mean to go through.

I'm going through, Jesus,

I'm going through;

I'll pay the price

Whatever others do;

I'll take the way

With the Lord's despised few,

I started with Jesus

And I'm going through.

Many once started

To run in this race

But with our Redeemer

They could not keep pace;

Others accepted

Because it was new,

But not very many

Seem bound to go through.

Let me but follow

My Lord all alone

And have for my pillow,

Like Jacob, a stone;

Rather than vain;

Worldly pleasures pursue,

Than turn from this pathway

And fail to go through.

Come then, my comrades,

And walk in this way

That leads to the kingdom

Of unending day;

Turn from your idols

And join with the few,

Start in with your Savior

And keep going through.
