Selah's song 'Press On' is an encouraging anthem about persevering through life's difficulties. The lyrics describe valleys, steep mountains, weariness, and hard choices, yet the refrain declares pressing on in Jesus' name. It emphasizes finding strength to continue with the prize of God's calling in view. The song draws on the biblical theme of pressing toward the goal, as in Philippians 3:14, and offers hope for those facing trials.
When the valley is deep
When the mountain is steep
When the body is weary
When we stumble and fall
When the choices are hard
When we're battered and scarred
When we've spent our resources
When we've given our all
In Jesus' name, we press on
In Jesus' name, we press on
Dear Lord, with the prize
Clear before our eyes
We find the strength to press on
In Jesus' name, we press on
In Jesus' name, we press on
Dear Lord, with the prize
Clear before our eyes
We find the strength to press on
To press on
