Cântăre Farther on

Farther On



we're all traveling on a journey

born to find our native land

like a scattered tribe returning

tracing the ancient plan

leaving the desert sand



we've found a highway few have taken

winding up the mountainside

other roads must be forsaken

crossing the great divide

to love on the other side



and farther on the night will come

we'll struggle on through the rain

but we know that morning brings the sun

lighting our way again



and Someone's walked this road before

Someone who knows the way

with every new mile we trust Him more

following day by day

and we follow



though the rocky road gets steeper

we will never turn around

Jesus is our guide and keeper

and sharing His love we've found

we're joyfully homeward bound

a Friend we can lean on

is leading us farther on
