The Race is Set Before Us

The race is set before us
That we must run with patience
As we train and learn to trust
In our lord who comes and strengthens

Let us be stripped of that
Which might wear us down
As to eternal goals we're at
Along the narrow path we bound

And lest sins come to trip us
Let us pray continually
For with our thoughts on Jesus
We become like Him habitually

For He finnished the race
And did so perfectly
If we've Him before our face
He'll guide us directly

Heb. 12:1-3
