Press On
Embracing Tomorrow's Grace: Seeking the Glory Within
Lyrics
Yesterday's your mercy
Reflecting on the mercy received in the past.
Tomorrow is your future grace
Acknowledging that the future holds grace.
Today I'll seek only
Focusing on seeking the glory of God today.
The glory of your face
Expressing a desire to see the divine presence.
Press on press on
Encouragement to persist and continue the journey.
The kingdom of heaven is our home
Affirming the heavenly destination as believers.
Press on press on
Emphasizing the need to persevere.
The day that I see Jesus
Desiring to hear commendation from Jesus in the future.
I want to hear well done
Seeking divine assistance to endure until meeting Jesus.
Until then Lord help me press on
Reference to exemplary saints who lived without compromise.
Like saints who came before me
Acknowledging the commitment to holy living.
They lived and died no compromise
Choosing to forget past mistakes and focus on the present.
Teach me to live holy
Reiteration of the appreciation for past mercy.
And forget what lies behind
Anticipating future grace and emphasizing seeking God's glory.
Yesterday's your mercy
Encouragement to persevere in the spiritual journey.
Tomorrow is your future grace
Restating the heavenly destination and encouragement to press on.
Today I'll seek only
Emphasizing the importance of seeking God's glory daily.
The glory of your face
Reiteration of the call to persist in the journey.
Press on press on
Encouraging continued effort to reach the kingdom of heaven.
The kingdom of heaven is our home
Affirming the heavenly destination as believers.
Press on press on
Emphasizing the need to persevere.
The day that I see Jesus
Desiring to hear commendation from Jesus in the future.
I want to hear well done
Seeking divine assistance to endure until meeting Jesus.
Until then Lord help me press on
Repetition of the plea for divine help in perseverance.
With every day you give me
Acknowledging each day as a gift and a step towards eternity.
This beating heart that's passing by
Recognizing the transient nature of life and the passage of time.
Remind me what you told me
Recalling the teachings and guidance received from God.
Death is gain to live is Christ
Affirmation that death brings gain, and life is devoted to Christ.
So if yesterday's your mercy
Reiteration of the appreciation for past mercy.
