Lord, I have started to walk in the light
That shines on my path-way, So clearly and so bright;
I’ve bade the world and its follies adieu,
And now with my Savior, I mean to go through.
Chorus
I’m going through, I’m going through,
I’ll pay the price, whatever others do,
I’ll take the way, with the Lord’s despised few;
I’ve started out with Jesus and I’m going through
Many once started, to run in this race,
But with our Redeemer, they could not keep pace,
Others accepted, because it was new,
But not very many seem bound to go through
Let me but follow my Lord all alone,
and have for my pillow, like Jacob, a stone
Rather than vain worldly pleasures pursue,
Or turn from this pathway and fail to go through
Chorus
