Lionel Cartwright - Press On Lyrics

Standing on the edge of the great unknown
No idea what lies ahead
Peering into total darkness
A flash of glory, a wave of dread

Following the footsteps of an unseen Guide
Walking by faith, not by sight

CHORUS:
Press on down the road that lies before you
Press on keep on walking toward the light
Press on though your dreams are barely breathing
And your reasons for believing seem long gone
Press on, Press on

Say goodbye to all that is familiar
We've never been this way before
Like Lewis and Clark with no map to guide them
Still they found that distant shore

Gotta trust your compass when you cannot see the stars
Gotta trust something bigger than we are

Press on down the road that lies before you
Press on keep on walking toward the light
Press on though your dreams are barely breathing
And your reasons for believing seem long gone
Press on, Press on

Godspeed
Fellow traveler
Godspeed
Keep your soul intact
Godspeed
Keep your eyes on the horizon
Till you reach your destination
Don't ever look back

Press on down the road that lies before you
Press on keep on walking toward the light
Press on though your dreams are barely breathing
And your reasons for believing seem long gone
Press on, Press on
