Author: Elsie Duncan Yale Hymnal: Jubilate #20 (1917) Refrain First Line: Onward, onward,to His service true Lyrics: 1 Press on in the royal way, The call of the King obey, Undaunted and true, our strength we renew, Trusting in the mighty one; In paths where His glories shine, We press to the height divine, His joys we share, His cross we bear. And follow on. Refrain: Onward, onward, to His service true; Onward, onward, He will ever strength renew; Forward, forward, till our vict’ry’s won, His joy we share, His cross we bear, And follow on. 2 Press on in the royal way, His love evermore our stay, His presence shall guide, His glory abide, Till our crown of life is won; We count gain of earth as loss, We trust in the wondrous cross, We praise His name, His might proclaim, And follow on. [Refrain] 3 Press on in the royal way, For joy shall be ours for aye, The King on His throne shall welcome His own, When our earthly race is run; The light of His changeless love Shall lead to the land above, We’ll sing His praise, through all our days, And follow on. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Press on in the royal way]
