Verse 1
Ahead of us a race to run
So looking at the past no more
Forgetting what has gone before
We fix our eyes on God the Son-
With eager diligence we train
As for the prize ahead we strain
Until at last our course is done
Verse 2
He calls us now to run the race
Discarding every weight and load
To speed our way along the road
The path we tread the way of grace-
And though the journey may be long
The grace of God will keep us strong
Until we stand before His face
