Lyrics

The journey’s long the cross is heavy
But His burden’s light
And His yoke is easy
The race is mine to finish well
Oh Lord teach me how to run

I’m reminded of Abraham
And the story of his obedience
A father with a broken heart
Who trusted when the road was dark
Oh Lord make me like Abraham

The road is hard my body weary
But His burden’s light
And His yoke is easy
The race is mine to finish well
Oh Lord teach me how to run
Oh Lord teach me how to run

I’m reminded of the lion’s den
And the strength of Daniel’s confidence
While the cost would have been painful
It’d be worth it the end
Oh Lord give me faith like Daniel had

Teach me how to run
Teach me how to run
Would you teach me how to run (oh-oh)
Teach me how to run (oh-oh)
Would teach me how to run (oh-oh)
Teach me how to run (oh-oh)

Then I’m reminded of the ancient path
And the saints who’ve gone
Before I have
Though the road is small and narrow
On the path of faithfulness
Lord light the way like You did for them
Lord light the way like You did oh for them
Lord light the way like You did for them
