Fighter - Running The Race

Running The Race


They looked at me as if to ask me a question
But didn't know what to say
I tried to live their life but they didn't mention
They'd try to take mine away
I told their lies, I played their game, they deceived me
As if it's part of their plan
I can't believe God sent His Son to receive me
And take me just as I am, so look at me now

I'm running the race ' I'm fighting the fight
I'm running from darkness
Into the light
I'm walkin' the mile
I'm keepin' the faith, I'm not lookin' back
I'm running the race

I walked alone without a home for my heartache
No one to share in the pain
I've walked so long this way, how much more can I take?
I'd give my life for a change
I broke the law, I broke my heart, I broke even
I tried to end it for good
You shook me hard but now I'm finally believing
I thought that I never would, but look at me now

You felt my pain, Your life was lost
You called it gain, they called it loss
I see it now, You are the way
To live in Christ, to die is gain
