Sometimes I feel I barely move, the race I run is just a crawl
I start to stumble I start to fall
So encumbered by my sin. The times I quickly gave in.
And when I feel I can’t go on, my strength is almost gone, getting weaker
I realize what holds me down, the chain’s that keep me bound
Chorus:
So I cast these rags aside that threaten to confine me
Pressing on, I strain to see
I set my eyes on You, the one who called me to be true
And I will run, I will run.
There was one who ran before me, I know the story well
He endured the scorn of man and He understands all my weakness
…feeling frail and weak I fall down at Your feet my faith restored
Yeah my faith restored.
I lay aside all the things that hold me down
And daily put on righteousness and I pursue a heavenly crown
