Carry On



Words and music by Lawrence Chewning



Carry on, carry on, carry on

To the students on the campus

Who are speaking out for Jesus

As the winds of opposition

Swirl around you day by day...

Even if you're mocked and hated

Don't you be intimidated

There's a great reward that's waiting

If you only carry on



CHORUS:

Carry on, carry on

It won't be long before

We're gathered 'round God's throne

Carry on, carry on



To the lonely missionary

To the pastor growing weary

To the parents of the wayward child

For whom you've prayed so long...

This is not the time to let up

It's the time to lift your head up

When you sow in tears

You'll reap in joy

Don't stop, carry on



CHORUS



And if you're facing great temptation

And you need some consolation

'Cause the devil's doing all he can

Just to make you trip and fall...

Well, the devil will accuse you

He'll even try to bruise you

But resist him, and he'll flee from you

Get up, and carry on



CHORUS (repeat)



Carry on
