Press the Battle

Words by Ron Goodman and Frank P. Nickel
Music by Frank P. Nickel

Fierce the warfare and the conflict
as the mighty foe we face.
But through Christ we have the victory;
we will conquer by His grace.

See, the final day is nearing,
soon the crown of life we’ll wear.
Let us win the lost for Jesus
that they too His love may share.

Chorus:
Yes the time of rest is coming
when our warfare shall subside.
Press the battle to the finish
for the Christ who bled and died.

Not for riches, not for glory;
but the lost in sin’s dark night,
we will wage relentless battle—
for the souls of men we’ll fight.

There is joy and sweet communion.
We are comrades in God’s will.
Not a thing this world may offer
can compare or match the thrill.

Chorus:
Yes the time of rest is coming
when our warfare shall subside.
Press the battle to the finish
for the Christ who bled and died.
