I’m putting on my sneakers
entering in the faithful race
so I’m cushioning my soul . . .
with God’s sufficient grace.
The contest that’s before me,
seems a million-miles long
but I will trust in Jesus . . .
to help me finish strong.
With Him running with me,
I’ll focus in on winning
the confidence He’ll provide
will keep me from sinning.
I’ll have a sense of purpose,
hope will be in my stride
I’ll stay true to the course
knowing He is at my side.
I’ll run with Jesus’ strength,
He’ll provide the assurance . . .
the crown of life will be my prize
for He’ll give me the endurance!
~~~~~~~~
“Know ye not that they
which run in a race run all,
but one receiveth the prize?
So run, that ye may obtain.”
