[Intro]
Some days I don’t see the finish line,
But faith keeps moving one step at a time.
I don’t need the whole road clear tonight,
Just a lamp for my feet and enough faith to fight.
[Verse 1]
Alarm clock yelling, “Get out of bed,”
Doubt in the corner putting words in my head.
Saying, “You’ve been running, but you’re still right here,”
I said, “Faith moves forward even carrying fear.”
Long road, but the road has purpose,
God does His best work beneath the surface.
Every closed door redirected my pace,
I’m not running for praise—I’m pursuing His grace.
[Pre-Chorus]
When my strength runs low,
You remind my soul,
I was never meant to carry this alone.
When the road gets steep,
You’re the breath I breathe,
You’re the promise underneath my feet.
[Chorus]
I will run and not grow weary,
I will walk and not lose heart.
When the night is long and heavy,
You remind me who You are.
You renew me, You restore me,
When I’m running out of strength.
I will rise up like an eagle,
I will trust You all the way.
I will run, run, run,
Even when I cannot see.
I will run, run, run,
’Cause I know You’re leading me.
I will run and not grow weary,
With my Savior next to me.
[Verse 2]
I prayed for an answer, but the silence grew,
Looking at the clock like, “God, what’s the move?”
He said, “Trust My timing, I’m still shaping you.”
A delay isn’t denial when He’s making you new.
Sometimes victory is one more small step,
Giving God your yes with no energy left.
If He called me, He’ll equip me,
If I fall, He’s running with me.
Got the Spirit in my bones,
Got a Father on the throne.
Let the rain fall down, let the wind get loud,
I’ve got peace that doesn’t need the crowd.
[Chorus]
I will run and not grow weary,
I will walk and not lose heart.
When the night is long and heavy,
You remind me who You are.
You renew me, You restore me,
When I’m running out of strength.
I will rise up like an eagle,
I will trust You all the way.
[Bridge]
I don’t have to be the fastest,
I just have to remain faithful.
I don’t have to know what’s coming,
I just have to know You’re able.
Throwing off the weight that was slowing my stride,
Fixing both of my eyes on the Author of life.
Hebrews twelve—I’m running with endurance.
Isaiah forty—You renew my assurance.
I may bend, but I won’t break.
I may stumble, but I’m held by grace.
Till the finish, I’ll keep my faith.
With my eyes on Jesus, I will run this race.
[Final Chorus]
I will run and not grow weary,
I will walk and not lose heart.
Through the fire, through the waiting,
You remind me who You are.
I will run, run, run,
Through the struggle, through the rain.
I will run, run, run,
Knowing nothing is in vain.
I will run and not grow weary,
By Your mercy, by Your grace.
Keep my eyes on Jesus,
And keep running my race.
