Every Bridge Is Burned Behind Me

Since I started out to find Thee,

Since I to the cross did flee,

Every bridge is burned behind me;

I will never turn from Thee.

Refrain

Strengthen all the ties that bind me

Closer, closer, Lord to Thee,

Every bridge is burned behind me;

Thine I evermore will be.

Thou didst hear my plea so kindly;

Thou didst grant me so much grace,

Every bridge is burned behind me;

I will ne'er my steps retrace.

Refrain

Cares of life perplex and grind me,

Yet I keep the narrow way.

Every bridge is burned behind me;

I from Thee will never stray.

Refrain

All in All I ever find Thee,

Savior, Lover, Brother, Friend,

Every bridge is burned behind me;

I will serve Thee to the end.
