Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: Great Tabernacle Hymns #56 (1916) First Line: Unto the uttermost,—Oh, what a song Refrain First Line: Unto the uttermost—is it not wonderful Lyrics: 1 Unto the uttermost,—Oh, what a song! This is my Joy as I’m pressing along; High in the sunshine, His banner shall wave, Able to keep me, and mighty to save. Chorus: Unto the uttermost—is it not wonderful? Jesus is able to save; Savior so glorious, grand and victorious! Jesus is able to save. 2 Unto the uttermost; has He not died? Precious the cleansing of Calvary’s tide; Has He not risen, our glorified Lord? Wondrously, freely, His Spirit outpoured. [Chorus] 3 Unto the uttermost—this is His way; This is love’s measure, come take it today; Only, believe Him, and using His grace, Find it “sufficient” in running life’s race. [Chorus] 4 Unto the uttermost, reaching all bounds Loudly the glad proclamation resounds; No night too starless for Him to illume, No place so dreary but He brings sweet bloom.
