Runner

Courier valiant, bearing the flame

Messenger noble, sent in His name

Faster and harder, run through the night

Desperate relay, carry the light

Carry the light

Runner

When the road is long

Feel like giving in

But you're hanging on

Oh, runner

When the race is won

You will run into His arms

Obstacle ancient, chilling the way

Enemy wakened, stoking the fray

Still be determined, fearless and true

Lift high the standard, carry it through

Carry it through

Runner

When the road is long

Feel like giving in

But you're hanging on

Oh, runner

When the race is won

You will run into His arms

Mindful of many waiting to run

Destined to finish what you've begun

Millions before you cheering you on

Godspeed, dear runner

Carry it home

Carry it home

Runner

When the road is long

Feel like giving in

But you're hanging on

Oh, runner

When the race is won

You will run into His arms

Runner

When the road is long

Feel like giving in

But you're hanging on

Oh, runner

When the race is won

You will run into His arms
