I Will Go On Lyrics

By William J. and Gloria Gaither & William J. Gaither

I repent for moments I have spent

recalling all the pain and failures of my past. 

I repent for dwelling on the things beyond my power to change,

the chains that hold me fast. 



Chorus

I will go on! My past I leave behind me; 

I gladly take His mercy and His love. 

He is joy and He is peace; 

He is strength and sweet release. 

I know He is and I am His. I will go on. 



Verse 2

I give up the bitterness and hate, the blaming men  and fate

for all my discontent. 

The guilt and pain I empty from my cup so God can fill it up

with peace and sweet content. 



Chorus

I will go on! My past I leave behind me; 

I gladly take His mercy and His love. 

He is joy and He is peace; 

He is strength and sweet release. 

I know He is and I am His. I will go on! 

My past I leave behind me; 

I gladly take His mercy and His love. 

He is joy and He is peace; 

He is strength and sweet release. 

I know He is and I am His. 

I will go on. 

I will go on.
