Fighter - Running The Race lyrics

They looked at me as if to ask me a question But didn't know what to say I tried to live their life but they didn't mention They'd try to take mine away I told their lies, I played their game, they decieved me As if it's part of their plan I can't believe God sent His Son to receive me And take me just as I am, so look at me now (Chorus) I'm running the race ' I'm fighting the fight I'm running from darkness Into the light I'm walkin' the mile I'm keepin' the faith, I'm not lookin' back I'm running the race I walked alone without a home for my heartache No one to share in the pain I've walked so long this way, how much more can I take? I'd give my life for a change I broke the law, I broke my heart, I broke even I tried to end it for good You shook me hard but now I'm finally believing I thought that I never would, but look at me now (Repeat Chorus) You felt my pain, Your life was lost You called it gain, they called it loss I see it now, You are the way To live in Christ, to die is gain
