I’ll keep on running,
nothing can detain
me from the victory . . .
one day I’ll attain.
I’ll go for the goal,
like the saints before
I can hear their cheers
upon heaven’s shore.
I’ll put in the effort,
to do my absolute best
for I know when I finish
I’ll have eternal rest.
I’ll stay in the race,
though I may tire . . .
I’ll just keep on letting
the Holy Spirit inspire.
I will not let fear,
stop me dead in my tracks
nor will I doubt God . . .
when the enemy attacks.
I’ll stay on course,
I’m not going to quit
until the bitter end
I willingly commit.
I will keep on running,
through thick and thin
I will stay in the race . . .
and by God’s grace I will win!
~~~~~~~~~~~
Hebrews 12:1
“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed
aboutwith so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us lay aside every weight, and the sin
which doth so easily beset us,
and let us run with patience
the race that is set before us,
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher
of our faith; who for the joy that was set
before him endured the cross, despising
the shame, and is set down at the right
hand of the throne of God.”
