...THEREFORE FINISH!

Jesus has started a good work in you    ...therefore finish!
  You have worked so hard and come this far    ...therefore finish!
    Remember that the hard part is already done    ...therefore finish!
        You can do it --with the Lord's help-- today    ...therefore finish!

   Jesus has started a good work in you 
He sees what you can become if you see it through!
So when you're down in that valley of decision
Remember He's right there with you on your mission

   You have worked so hard and come this far 
Don't give up or don't give in just because your tired!
So when you're down in that valley of decision
Remember He's right there with you on your mission

   Remember that the hard part is already done 
Jesus paid the price for you to become His son
When you're down in that valley of decision
Remember He's right there with you on your mission

   You can do it --with the Lord's help-- today
Before you face the enemy:  pray, pray, pray!
When you're down in that valley of decision
Remember He's right there with you on your mission

Jesus has started a good work in you    ...therefore finish!
  You have worked so hard and come this far    ...therefore finish!
    Remember that the hard part is already done    ...therefore finish!
        You can do it --with the Lord's help-- today    ...therefore finish!

...therefore finish
...I need to finish...
...just finish...

It is finished.
