Eternal Endurance Satisfied

All mankind is lost on hell bound path
only God can come to their rescue
this He's done at Golgotha's hill
where Jesus paid our salvation due

Having given us His redemption
God has called us to believe
on the finished work of His son
so on that hope we should cleave

This gives us our responsibility
to believe continually and forever
being justified, sanctified and to be glorified
so to be taken over our Jordan river

This is our continual pursuit
following on the upward way
never turning back to doubt
just looking to Jesus as we pray

So be sure you do endure
right on to life's final end
when you'll be truly saved
from sinful self God will mend
