Look not behind thee

Escape for your life

The angels grabbed a hold of them

Lot, his daughters and his wife

They couldn't climb the mountains

That were up ahead

They begged for refuge in a city

The angels allowed them

But when the fire and brimstone fell

And the cities were brought to naught

Lot's wife had to turn around

Then she turned into a pillar of salt. (Genesis 19)

We must reach forward to apprehend

When we find ourselves in the dark

Not looking or turning back

Pressing towards the high mark

( Phillipians 3:13)

If the mountains seem too tall

Or the race seems hard to run

We must equip ourselves with patience

And keep our focus on the Son
