Brothers, I do not account of myself to have laid hold;
But one thing—
Forgetting the things which are behind
And stretching forward to what is before,
I pursue toward the goal
For the prize of the high calling
The high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
But one thing—
Forgetting the things which are behind
And stretching forward to what is before,
I pursue toward the goal
For the prize of the high calling
The high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Thank You Lord for saving us and bringing us on the way which leads to life. Lord Jesus, You are the way into God. Cause us to realize that our Christian life is a race, and we must run the race to win the prize. Lord, we want to forget the things which are behind and stretch forward to the Christ before to experience Him, enjoy Him, and win Him as the prize! Praise the Lord 😀

I remember singing this back when I was a college freshman in 2001. Because of this song, I remember this verse so well. I have been enjoying Christ as our unique goal, destiny, and prize. We just need to laid hold of Him and He laid of us.

Amen.
I remember this song was introduced to my Espinosa's home meeting through trainees Bobby and Justin when I was only a year into the church life (2011!?). Odd to see this added just now! The song can be split in half and sung at the same time; very harmonious and uplifting when we did this. I'll always remember. . . :-)
