Song 8 - So Let us Run the Race
The song will play all the way through.
At the end of the song, please close this window
NB - Closing this window before the end of the music will stop it prematurely

So let us run, So let us run the race that is before us
Laying aside, laying aside the weights that press upon us.
Looking to Jesus, looking to Jesus,
Who both began and perfected our faith.

And for the joy, and for the joy, the joy that was before him
He bore the shame, he bore the shame and taunts of those who scorned him
He overcame death, he overcame death,
And is set down at the right hand of God.

And now we praise God for the saviour,
These songs have told of his birth
And our singing has been for a witness
That God has a plan with the earth.

So let us run, So let us run the race that is before us
Laying aside, laying aside the weights that press upon us.
Looking to Jesus, looking to Jesus,
Who both began and perfected our faith.
