We'll Never Turn Back Any More

Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Light in the Valley #158 (1898) First Line: There's a land, we are told Refrain First Line: No, we'll never turn back any more Lyrics: 1 There's a land, we are told, Where the streets are of gold, Just across on the bright shining shore; We've left Egypt behind That fair country to find, And we'll never turn back any more. Chorus: No, we'll never turn back any more, No, we'll never turn back any more; We are pressing our way Toward that fair land of day, And we'll never turn back any more. 2 There, with palms in their hands, Are the saints from all lands, Singing praises to God o'er and o'er; We are marching along, Soon we'll join in their song, And we'll never turn back any more. [Chorus] 3 For our God and the right We have entered the fight, And we'll follow where he goes before; For we conquer each day, While we fight as we pray, And we'll never turn back any more. [Chorus] 4 Praise the Lord for his grace, We have entered a place Where we're safe, tho' the loud tempests roar; Let the world laugh and sneer, We are satisfied here, And we'll never turn back any more. [Chorus] 5 So on God we rely, Pressing on till we die; Then, when battles of life all are o'er, With our Saviour we'll rest, In that land of the blest, And we'll never turn back any more. [Chorus] Topics: Praise; Work Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a land, we are told]
