|
Courier valiant, bearing the flame |
|
Messenger noble, sent in His name |
|
Faster and harder, run through the night |
|
Desperate relay, carry the light |
|
Carry the light |
|
Chorus: |
|
Runner, when the road is long |
|
Feel like giving in but you're hanging on |
|
Oh runner, when the race is won |
|
You will run into his arms |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Obstacle ancient, chilling the way |
|
Enemy wakened, stoking the fray |
|
Still be determined, fearless and true |
|
Lift high the standard, carry it through |
|
Carry it through |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Mindful of many waiting to run |
|
Destined to finish what you've begun |
|
Millions before you cheering you on |
|
Godspeed dear runner, carry it home |
|
Carry it home |
|
(Chorus) |
