And They Shall Run

And They Shall Run

In this world of pain and woe,
You may stumble and falter.
Grab the hand that reaches down
From your Heavenly Father.

He will lift you up high,
So that you may rise above;
And He will hold you there
By the power of His love.
And you shall run…

They that wait upon the Lord
Shall renew their strength,
They shall mount up with wings as eagles;
And they shall run…

The battles are often fierce
In this dark world we live in.
You may find your soul is weak,
And you feel ready to give in.

But don’t give up, just press ahead,
Keep reaching for that high prize.
Keep on looking unto Jesus –
As your strength begins to rise…
And you shall run…

And they shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
And they shall run…
They shall be more than conquerors.
And they shall run…

There are voices crying out –
To break your will and compromise.
But stand fast, and hold your ground;
Mount up on wings, towards the skies…
And you shall run…

They that wait upon the Lord
Shall renew their strength.
And they shall run…

They shall be My sons and daughters.
And they shall run…
And they shall run…

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

2 Corinthians 6:17-18 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
