I'm Going Through

Verse 1

Lord, I have started to walk in the light, Shining upon me from heaven so bright; I bade the world and its follies adieu, I’ve started in Jesus, and I’m going through.

Chorus

I’m going through, yes, I’m going through; I’ll pay the price, whatever others do; I’ll take the way with the Lord’s despised few, I’m going through, Jesus, I’m going through.

Verse 2

Many they are who start in the race; But with the light they refuse to keep pace; Others accept it because it is new, But not very many expect to go through.

Verse 3

I’d rather walk with Jesus alone, And have for a pillow, like Jacob, a stone, Living each moment with His face in view, Than shrink from my pathway and fail to go through.

Verse 4

O brother, now will you take up the cross? Give up the world, and count it as dross; Sell all thou hast, and give to the poor, Then go through with Jesus and those who endure.
