Have you started for glory and heaven
Have you left this old world far behind
In your heart is the Comforter dwelling
Can you say, Praise the Lord, He is mine
Have the ones that once walked on the highway
Gone back, and you seem all alone
Keep your eyes on the prize, for the home in the skies
God is still on the throne

God is still on the throne
And He will remember His own
Though trials may press us and burdens distress us
He never will leave us alone
God is still on the throne
He never forsaketh His own
His promise is true, He will not forget you
God is still on the throne

Burdened soul, is your heart growing weary
With the toil and the heat of the day
Does it seem that your path is more thorny
As you journey along on life's way
Go away and in secret before Him
Tell your grief to the Savior alone
He will lighten your care, for He still answers prayer
God is still on the throne.

He is coming again, is the promise
To disciples when He went away
In like manner as He has gone from you
You will see Him returning some day
Does His tarrying cause you to wonder
Does it seem He's forgotten His own
His promise is true, He is coming for you
God is still on the throne

God is still on the throne
And He will remember His own
Though trials may press us and burdens distress us
He never will leave us alone
God is still on the throne
He never forsaketh His own
His promise is true, He will not forget you
God is still on the throne

His promise is true, He will not forget you
God is still on the throne
