My One Aspiration

I am so persuaded neither death nor life
Can ever separate us from the love of Christ
If God is Standing for us, then who will dare
No power in all creation will reach us there.
No power of the angels nor present nor the future,
Nor height up above nor down Below,
We'll win the final victory and so much more,
For Jesus is the son of God, the Conqueror

Chorus:
Oh, it is my one aspiration
Forgetting what lies behind,
Reaching out to what lies ahead,
I press on, to the goal, to the goal
To win the prize of God's high calling
In Jesus Christ my Lord

Put on God's Whole armour that you may stand,
Firm against the devil, against his hand,
Praying every momment and in his might
with righeousness your breast-plate
You'll fight the fight
With true as your belt now, salvation your helmet,
His Word as your sword and faith as your shield.
Then thank God for the victory and so much more
For Jesus is the son of God, the Conqueror.

Chorus:
Oh, it is my one aspiration
Forgetting what lies behind,
Reaching out to what lies ahead,
I press on, to the goal, to the goal
To win the prize of God's high calling
In Jesus Christ my Lord
