Run

Verse 1

I will run, run, run

The race laid in front of me

I'll run, run, run
With joy and persistency

Knowing a great cloud of witnesses round my life

I will run, run, run

Throw off useless weight

I'll run, run, run

Discarding my sinful ways

Keeping my eyes on my saviour
Who sits on high

Verse 2

Physical training is not without worth

But training for godliness - more!

Promising blessing both now and always

Diligence has it's reward

Labouring, striving for godliness now

Putting my hope in the Lord

Setting aside all the ways of the world

(Yet) thankful for His resource

thankful for His resource

thankful for His resource

Verse 3

Hardship, hostility, discouragement

Shall not divert my direction

Struggling with sin I will think of my Lord

Accepting the father's correction

Straightening the paths for each fall of my feet

Seeking His righteousness

Then I will be what he wants me to be

Sharing his holiness

Sharing his holiness

Sharing his holiness

Bridge

I look to Jesus, author and perfector

He is my Lord, my inspiration

Endured the cross

He scorned it’s shame

For the joy set before him

He shed his blood

Now he sits at God's right hand
