Running For My Life
Lee Williams And The Spiritual QC's Lyrics

I’m running for my life
I'm running because I want to live a life that is pleasing to Christ, and I believe that running towards Him is the only way to achieve that.

Running cause I wanna see Christ
I'm moving towards Christ in order to experience His glory and to be with Him forever, and that is the sole reason why I'm running.

I made up in my mind
I have made a firm decision that I'm going to run towards Christ, and nothing wil change my mind.

I'm gonna run while I still got time
I'm aware that I'm running out of time, and I need to put in as much effort as possible to reach Christ before it's too late.

I’m gonna (Run) gotta (Run) I gotta (Run) I gotta (Run) While the blood is running warm (In My Veins)
I will keep on running towards Christ no matter how tough the journey becomes, as long as I am alive and able to do so.

When I hear those church bells toll
Whenever I hear the sound of church bells ringing, I reflect on the meaning of life and the purpose behind my running.

I stop and I wonder Lord how long
I pause and think about how far I've come in my journey, and how much longer I have to go before I reach my destination.

I see the hearse wheels rolling too
I see the reality of death and how it can come at any moment, which fuels my desire to continue running towards Christ.

Then I tell myself that could've been you
I remind myself that death is a possibility for me, and that drives me to keep running towards Christ with more determination.

When these eyes of mine are closed
When I die and my eyes are shut, I know I won't be able to run towards Christ anymore.

And the blood in my veins gets cold
As I near death, I feel my life force slipping away which makes me realize the urgency of running towards Christ while I still can.

When I step out life's back door
When I leave the world behind, and all that's left is my soul, I won't be able to run on earth anymore.

I won’t be able y'all, then I can't run no more
Once I depart from this life, I know that I won't have any more opportunity to change my mind and run towards Christ.

Gotta (Run) Gotta (Run) Gotta (Run) Hills get high, but I gotta (Run)
I must keep running even if I'm faced with difficulties that make the journey more challenging because I know I need to reach Christ.

Valleys get low, but I gotta (Run) Steps get real slow, but I gotta (Run)
Even when I'm feeling low or I’m making slow progress, I won't stop running towards Christ because He is the ultimate destination of my journey.

Friends are gone, but I gotta (Run)
Even if my friends or my support system leave me, they won't stop me from running towards Christ because I'm committed to this journey no matter what.

When it looks like I can't make it (Run)
Even when it seems like I can't continue running or that the journey is too difficult for me to handle, I know I must keep going because I only have Christ as my ultimate goal.

Enemies all around me, I gotta run (Run)
Even when people or situations try to stop me or bring me down, I won't let them win because I'm running towards something that is greater than any obstacle.

Ain't got nowhere to go, I steal away (Run)
Even when I feel lost or uncertain about where I'm going, I know I have to keep on running because that's the only way I can find a sense of purpose and direction in life.

Look up and tell the Lord, I'm Gonna (Run)
Looking up to God gives me the strength and courage I need to keep on running towards Christ because I know He will guide me and protect me as I journey towards Him.

Run (Run) sing 11 times Gotta (Run) Run (Run) sing 3 times Gotta (Run) Run (Run) Gotta (Run) Run (Run) Gotta (Run) Run (Run) sing 11 times While the blood is running warm (In My Veins)
This is a declaration that I must keep on running towards Christ, no matter how challenging the journey is or how much I may want to give up because the time is not eternal, as long as there is still life in me, I must keep on running.
