Verse 1
May we run this race,
May we keep the faith,
May our eyes be fixed
On Jesus
That we’ll not lose heart
In our struggle with sin
And through suffering
Know endurance.
Verse 2
May our company be
The saints You’ve called
May we all stand
Firm in One Spirit,
That the gospel’s truth
May resound on earth
That all living things
May hear it
Verse 3
May the words we share
Be Your grace and peace
May our tongues speak
Your proclamations,
That the many parts
Of the Body of Christ
Be affirmed in their
Right relation.
Verse 4
When that day arrives,
And the race is won,
When our griefs give way
To deliverance.
We will fully know
As we’re fully known,
All our groans will end
As new songs begin.
