About This Song:

Race evokes the urgency of Paul’s call to finish our Christian lives strong. He likens our lives to a race in Hebrews and gives us a vivid picture of the cheering “great cloud of witnesses.” We are encouraged to throw off every hindrance that prevents Godly success and to run with perseverance with our eyes fixed on Him (Hebrews 12:1-3)

lyrics

RACE

VERSE
Since we are surrounded, by great cloud of witnesses
We will throw off everything that hinders
Sin so easily entangles, let us run with perseverance
The race marked out we follow, with our eyes fixed on Him


PRE-CHORUS
And the cloud of witnesses watches and cheers us on
We will fight the good fight, we will be strong


CHORUS
We will run, with perseverance
We will run, the race laid out before us
We will run, with our eyes upon Jesus
Seeking Jesus’ face, we will finish the race


VERSE 2
We know that He suffered, despite the joy set before Him
He endured the cross for us, scorning all its shame
Then, we know, He sat down, at the right hand of the Father
Can we really fathom, that He took all of our blame?


PRE-CHORUS
And the cloud of witnesses watches and cheers us on
We will fight the good fight, we will be strong


CHORUS
We will run, with perseverance
We will run, the race laid out before us
We will run, with our eyes upon Jesus
Seeking Jesus’ face, we will finish the race
Running with our eyes upon Jesus

CHORUS
We will run, with perseverance
We will run, the race laid out before us
We will run, with our eyes upon Jesus
Seeking Jesus’ face, we will finish the race
Running with our eyes upon Jesus
