  • “Farther along” lyrics

    Recently I was introduced to a new song that has really blessed me.

    Josh Garrels is the musician. He is new to me. You may want to check out his stuff. He gives away his music all the time. Check out his website to download some of his albums for free.

    I have not listened to much other than this one song, but it has really stuck to me.

    It is a re-make of the old hymn Farther Along. He uses the same chorus but has written his own lyrics.

    You can listen to the whole song here.

    Here is an excerpt from the song:

    “Still I get hard pressed on every side
    Between the rock and a compromise
    Like the truth and pack of lies fightin’ for my soul
    And I’ve got no place left go
    Cause I got changed by what I’ve been shown
    More glory than the world has known
    Keeps me ramblin’ on

    Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall
    I’m free to love once and for all
    And even when I fall I’ll get back up
    For the joy that overflows my cup
    Heaven filled me with more than enough
    Broke down my levee and my bluff
    Let the flood wash me

    And one day when the sky rolls back on us
    Some rejoice and the others fuss
    Cause every knee must bow and tongue confess
    That the son of god is forever blessed
    His is the kingdom, we’re the guests
    So put your voice up to the test
    Sing Lord, come soon”
