Run Like Heaven (12:1-17)

Surrounded by this cloud of saints
Who lived their lives and died by faith
Keep running for the prize that's sure to come

And when the run is all but done
With your weary feet becoming numb
Look to the ones who have walked the road before

The saints of old whose lives have called you to endure
And here's one more

Consider Him, the Christ
The founder and perfecter of our faith
Who in spite of the shame and disgrace
Endured the cross, and he did it for the joy

Consider Him, the Son
Our example of what it means
To race and run by faith
He endured the cross, and he did for the joy

So lay aside every weight
And rid yourself of all your sin
Before you lies a lengthy race
Eendure for the win

And when you find you're growing tired
Of all the trials, pain, and scorn
Look to Christ and feel inspired
He has been there before

So lay aside every weight
And rid yourself of all your sin
Before you lies a lengthy race
Endure for the win

And when your Father sends the rod
And life seems to come undone

Remember it's the love of God
It's the love of God
It's His love for his daughters and sons

So keep running, running, running
Keep running all your days
Keep running, running, running
There is glory that awaits

Keep running, running, running
Keep running till it hurts
Keep running, running, running
Till you leave this earth
