Forward, no relenting!

“Walking in Christ’s footsteps, victory we receive!”

The triumphant message of this song rings out clear in this international performance from a Brunstad Christian Church online service. If we want freedom from sin, it is guaranteed to us when we are obedient in faith! What a hopeful life to live!

Lyrics: Forward, no relenting!

Forward, no relenting! Sin beneath our feet!
Satan’s hosts can’t steal our boldness – no retreat!  
Boldly we press forward, take one step, yes, two.  
No more under bondage! God is good and true!    

Walking in Christ’s footsteps, vict’ry we receive.  
All the law’s fulfilled in us when we believe. 
Forward, no relenting! We by faith press through.  
Thus we conquer strongholds! God is good and true!

We do not look back! We’ll always forward go 
Till we have completely conquered every foe!  
God is pleased when we by faith the goal pursue.  
See, He goes before us! God is good and true!

Everywhere our foot treads, we new land possess.  
Till the work is finished, we will never rest!  
Vict’ry o’er the flesh gives pow’r and courage too. 
Canaan’s fruits we’re tasting! God is good and true!

Everything by faith is possible, we know.
God has promised all of Canaan—that's our goal!
Grapes in giant clusters must be borne by two.
Milk and honey flow there! God is good and true!
