I Have Settled the Question

I re­mem­ber when the Lord spoke to my soul

I could feel the hea­vy bur­den from me roll

When He spoke the gra­cious words

Wilt thou be whole?

Then I set­tled the quest­ion for­ev­er.

I have set­tled the quest­ion

hal­le­lu­jah!

I will nev­er turn back from the nar­row way.

I am go­ing through with Je­sus

hal­le­lu­jah!

Till I reach the gates of glo­ry some sweet day.

I no long­er walk the ways of sin­ful­ness

But I dai­ly tread the paths of right­eous­ness

Since the day the Lord has come

My life to bless

I have set­tled the quest­ion for­ev­er.

I will choose the ho­ly joys that al­ways last

And re­ject sin’s plea­sures that will soon be past

To the trea­sures of true worth I’m hold­ing fast

I have set­tled the quest­ion for­ev­er.

Others may de­ny the Lord and live in sin

But the race that I have en­tered I must win

Through the pear­ly gates I mean to enter in

I have set­tled the quest­ion for­ev­er.
