You keep me going even though the world comes down
Like a whip on my back, O Lord
And when I'm lost, you turn me around
Set me on the right track and course
To where I really ought to be
You point me towards eternity
And You keep me pressing on, O Lord!
And when it seems the night will never end
You give the promise of the dawn
And when I'm running out of strength
You give me hope to carry on
To where I really ought to be
You point me towards eternity
And You keep me pressing on
And I know this old world will end
But my soul will rise again
Lord, You will lift it up
But, till then I need Your love
I must keep it in my sights
Long as I walk in Your light
Lord, I know that everything
Is going to be alright 'cause
You keep me going even though the world comes down
Like a whip on my back, O Lord
And when I'm lost, you turn me around
Set me on the right track and course
To where I really ought to be
You point me towards eternity
And you keep me pressing on, O Lord!
