My Race

One foot in front of the other i will win this race
going at mine, no not yours or even a fast pace

My opponent isn't any person or anything you can see
the one and only opponent, this life,finishing my story

But I don'thave to do all this running alone
I have a secret weapon to get me to my home

He will cheer us on all his promises kept
Jesus will carry us when we can't take another step
