Charmed by the world's delight;
Things that are higher, things that are nobler,
These have allured my sight.
Chorus:
I will hasten to Him,
Hasten so glad and free.
Jesus, greatest, highest,
I will come to Thee.

Leaving my sin and strife;
He is the true One, He is the just One,
He hath the words of life. [Chorus]
3 I am resolved to follow the Savior,
Faithful and true each day.
Heed what He sayeth, do what He willeth,
He is the living way. [Chorus]
4 I am resolved to enter the kingdom,
Leaving the paths of sin;
Friends may oppose me, foes may beset me,
Still will I enter in. [Chorus]

Come, friends, without delay,
Taught by the Bible, led by the Spirit,
We'll walk the heav'nly way. [Chorus] Topics: Invitation Songs; Decision Languages: English Tune Title: [I am resolved no longer to linger]
