Too Much to Gain to Lose

Too many miles behind me,

Too many trials are through;

Too many tears help me to remember,

There's just too much to gain to lose.

I've crossed the hot, burning desert,

Struggling, the right road to choose;

Somewhere up ahead there's cool, clear water,

And defeat is one word I just don't use.

Too many sunsets lie behind the mountains,

Too many rivers my feet have walked through;

Too many treasures awaiting over yonder,

There's too much to gain to lose.

We shall behold Him, we shall behold Him,

Face to face, in all of His glory;

We shall behold Him, we shall behold Him,

Face to face, our Savior and Lord.

There's too much to gain to lose!
