Fulfilling What I'Ve Begun
I’m determined to fulfill what I’ve begun
By God’s grace that enabled me to run.
Knowing that Christ started a good work* in me in His omniscience
I’m assured that He will finish it, constraining my obedience.
In this race of life which my Lord has me enlisted
His strength I constantly need since that day His heart I trusted.
Conscious that what I do for my Master in the flesh is vain
I seek His help, allowing me to gain against carnal loss-pain.
Though I admit that what I can do for my Saviour has a limit
His might that works in me is infinite as to Him I submit.
With my King’s wisdom, I keep on pursuing for His glory
Serving Him, ministering to others by His bliss-filled victory.
Thus, grateful am I to my heavenly Father above
Who unceasingly showers me His unconditional love.
*Hebrews 13:21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever.
