RUN THE RACE
V1. I am a saint and
I run a race. The Lord
Is generous to those who
Have no might, He increases
Strength. My body is
Sustained.
C. I am forgetting what
Lies behind and reaching
Forward to what lies
Ahead, I press on toward
The goal for the prize of
The upward call of God
In Christ Jesus.
V2. I will make haste,
And accelerate so
That I may finish
My race with joy.
And the ministry
Which I received from
The Lord Jesus, is to
Testify to the Gospel
Of the grace of God.
V3. I run by faith,
Not by sight.
This is my plight,
I will run with
All of my might.
When I come to the end
Of my life, I will know
I have fought the
Good fight, I have
Finished the race.
I have shared and
Kept the faith.
