Verse 1

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

Chorus 1

I'm reminded of Abraham
And the story of His obedience
I find that with the broken heart
Who trusted when the road was dark
Oh Lord make me like Abraham

Verse 2

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

Chorus 2

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

Refrain

Teach me how to run
Teach me how to run

Refrain

Would You teach me how to run
Teach me how to run

Chorus 3

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
