Chorus
I press
I press
I press toward the mark of the higher calling
I press
I press
I press toward the mark of the higher calling

V1:
The enemy keeps visiting trials upon me
But I count it all joy in knowing
that the testing of my faith will generate endurance

Refrain
There’s nothing truer than
When you’re go-ing through,
It’s hard to see
that it will be over
Press through the mess, don’t stop
Keep going!

Chorus
I press
I press
I press toward the mark of the higher calling

I press
I press
I press toward the mark of the higher calling

V1:
Hunger, poverty and lack distract me;
It’s just a flood attacking
My body's been near death so many times
I stopped the counting, but instead
I keep rebounding
There’s nothing truer than

Refrain
When you’re go-ing through,
It’s hard to see
that it will be over
Press through the mess, don’t stop
Keep going!

Bridge
Nothing will separate me;
Not death nor life nor created thing.

I aim to follow the King
from cross to grave to eternity!
Adlib: At the first trumpet sound I will be ready

Chorus
I press
I press
I press toward the mark of the higher calling
I press
I press
I press toward the mark of the higher calling


Vamp
Press
(Adlib) Keep on going
Press
Keep on standing
Press
Keep on holding on
Press
Keep on fighting
I need my testimony to be that
I never gave up
I overcame by the blood!
Press
Things can be a mess
Press
Just stay in the press
Press
Don’t get weary
Press
Keep believing!
