Lyrics of
The Race

Oh trust, where have you gone?
I used to sing you like a song
Oh my arms were opened wide,
Not a single fear crossed my mind
Oh my eyes found wonder in the darkest places
I danced to the rhythm of grace
Not a single hardship could take my laughter
I persevered the race.
But now I look through a dirty mirror
Oh innocence l can't find you anymore
You've locked yourselfin a shell of safety
But the emptiness remains
Oh the emptiness remains

Find me somewhere along the road of trust
So I can take your hand again and you can teach me how to love
Find me somewhere along the road of grace
So I can open up my heart and together
We can run the race
The race, the race, oh grace, we can run the race

Oh trust, open my eyes
Teach me how to fly
Shine your light into my eyes
So that I may come alive
Oh the stormy clouds rain down upon me
My wings they ache for rest
Oh my fear has shadowed the light of safety
But I run and I run my best
Don't leave me here in this broken valley
I know there's more, I just can't find it anymore
I want to dance with the saints and angels
Oh bring me back to life
Oh bring me back to life

Find me somewhere along the road of trust
So I can take your hand again and you can teach me how to love
Find me somewhere along the road of grace
So I can open up my heart and together
We can run the race
The race, the race, oh grace, we can run the race

Oh you found me, you found me
And filled me with your song!
Oh this race that I'd been running wasn't a race all along
Oh the joy, oh the freedom!
How could I not see?
All along it was never about me
n.c.

Finding you somewhere along the road of trust
So we can take your hand again and you can teach us how to love
Finding you somewhere along the road of grace
So we can open up our hearts and together
We can run the race
The race, the race, oh grace, we can run the race
