23. Striving to enter in

1 Striving to follow Jesus,
Even as He hath said;
Keeping the narrow pathway;
Going where He hath led!

Refrain:
Striving, Striving,
Striving a crown to win;
Striving, striving,
striving to enter in.

2 Striving to follow Jesus,
Even thro' good and ill;
Heeding his precious counsels,
Doing his holy will. [Refrain]

3 Striving to follow Jesus,
Even with willing feet;
Feeling his blessed guidance,
Hearing his voice so sweet. [Refrain]
