Training all this time, I'm at the starting line
A marathon I'm gonna have to run
In such a way as if to win the prize
And I believe even though I can't see

All the athletes from days gone by
Are in the stadium surrounding me
And in the days before the final phase
I sacrificed the things that held me down
And concentratedly I fixed my gaze

A shot resounds, my heart begins to pound
And I begin to know what it's like
To run as if I had nobody around

And I feel like I never felt before
I ran through the open door
And I feel like I never felt before

Than I gave You credit for
And I feel like I never felt before

Climbing high
I can almost touch the sky
But every time I'm halfway there
I think I'll never reach the top alive

But I'm aware
I'm safely in Your care
And with Your help I'll never face a day
That I am unable to bear

You taught me to crawl, you taught be to stand
You taught me run one step at a time
And watch out for the quicksand
You taught me to live, you taught me to die
You taught me to spread my wings and how to fly
