I'm gonna press on, I'm gonna press on
I'm gonna press on
I'm gonna press on, I'm gonna press on
I'm gonna press on
(I'm gonna press on, I'm gonna press on)
(I'm gonna press on)
(I'm gonna press on, I'm gonna press on)
When I'm alone, when I'm afraid
When I have had all I can take
Losing my grip, I start to slip away
When I can hear the voice of doubt
Inside my head, screaming loud
Strengthen my faith, and help me say
Today, today
I will follow, I will press on
Even when the walk feels long
Your hands hold me together
Your love is with me forever
Through the broken, through the victory
I will praise You through it all
And run hard 'til the race is done
I, I'm gonna press on, press on
I'm gonna press on, press on
I'm gonna press on, press on
How many storms have I been through?
How many led me right to You?
You're using the pain, the hardest days
For my good, my good
So what do I fear? God, You are with me
Guidin' my steps today
Through the mountains, valleys, sun, and rain
Lord, lead the way, lead the way
I will follow, I will press on
Even when the walk feels long
Your hands hold me together
Your love is with me forever
Through the broken, through the victory
I will praise You through it all
And run hard 'til the race is done
I, I'm gonna press on, press on
Press on, press on
I'm gonna press on, press on
Press on, press on
I'm gonna press on, press on
One step in front of the other
No lookin' back, no lookin' back
One step in front of the other
I'm gonna press on (I'm gonna press on)
I'm gonna press on (I'm gonna press on)
One step in front of the other
No lookin' back, no lookin' back
One step in front of the other
I will follow, I will press on
Even when the walk feels long
Your hands hold me together
Your love is with me forever
Through the broken, through the victory
I will praise You through it all
And run hard 'til the race is done
I, I'm gonna press on, press on
Press on, press on
I'm gonna press on, press on
Press on, press on
I'm gonna press on, press on
One step in front of the other
No lookin' back, no lookin' back
One step in front of the other
I'm gonna press on (I'm gonna press on)
I'm gonna press on (I'm gonna press on)
One step in front of the other
No lookin' back, no lookin' back
One step in front of the other
I will follow, I will press on
Even when the walk feels long
Your hands hold me together
Your love is with me forever
Through the broken, through the victory
I will praise You through it all
And run hard 'til the race is done
I, I'm gonna press on, press on
One step in front of the other (I'm gonna press on, press on)
No lookin' back, no lookin' back (I'm gonna press on, press on)
One step in front of the other (I'm gonna press on, press on)
I'm gonna press on (I'm gonna press on)
I'm gonna press on (I'm gonna press on)
One step in front of the other (I'm gonna press on, press on)
No lookin' back, no lookin' back (I'm gonna press on, press on)
One step in front of the other (I'm gonna press on, press on)
I'm gonna press on, press on
Press on, press on
