[Eb] We're reading Ambassadors from the third chapter, [Db] Philippians, [Eb] beginning at the 13th verse.
And this is a message to [Ebm] the church and he says,
[Eb] Brethren, I count not myself to have [Ebm] apprehended,
[Ab] but this one thing I do, I'm forgetting those things [Bb] which are behind [Eb] me,
and [Db] I'm reaching [Eb] forth to those things which are before me.
