Striving Onward, Pressing Forward

Author: J. H. Horstmann Hymnal: Elmhurst Hymnal #225 (1921) Meter: 8.5.8.5.7.7.8.5 Lyrics: 1 Striving onward, pressing forward, Life divine to gain, We will ever make endeavor Until we attain; What detains we’ll cast aside, By that promise to abide: Who endureth, life secureth, And the prize shall gain. 2 While contending, and withstanding For the truth and right; Draw us nearer, show us clearer, Lord, Thy Spirit’s might; Let Thy word its strength impart To each sad and yearning heart; Praise abounding shall be sounding, At Thy throne of light. 3 In the sorrow which the morrow May around us roll, Hold us ever, leave us never, Save, O save the soul! Through temptation’s daily strife, Through the vanities of life, Lead us onward, forward, upward, To our glorious goal.
