Up with the sun – the new day dawns
Breath in my lungs and a new song
I will not forget all the benefits (of)
Knowing the Lord – knowing the Lord
Here is the crown that comes with suffering
Here is the power of resurrection
Righteousness in Christ, and eternal life
I consider all things – consider all things nothing next to knowing the Lord
Beware the dogs and evildoers
Beware the thrones of the wicked rulers
Not that I’ve obtained these things – that’s why I press on
Toward the goal to win the prize for which God called me home
Leaving what’s behind - straining toward what lies ahead
He’s bid me come and die and He has raised me from the dead
