Run the Race

Lord,

Because of you, I can rejoice – I am alive - I thrive.

Give me drive to strive deeper into Your Word,

 And to stay the course.

What I lack -When I fall back-

Get me back on track,

And help me run the race.

Lord, 

Fix my eyes on Jesus, 

Who paid the price- who made the sacrifice,

Who rose again, 

And Who made a home for me in paradise.

Please establish my pace-

Hold me tight with You ever in my space.

And Lord, 

I thank you for Your grace.

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set down before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.” 

Romans 12:1-2 ESV
