Talking about a race, Pastor Joshua started December
To always finish the race strong, we should remember
Per Philippians one, God will bring us a flourishing finish
But if we don’t know the finish line, our odds do diminish
Of course life is a series of parallel and sequential races
A lack of clarity is often the biggest enemy in many cases
Per First Corinthians nine, Paul said not to run aimlessly
Second Corinthians five says to please God shamelessly
For if we focus on this objective whether “home or away"
We will all be living for Christ, in every race on every day
All of our problems can be addressed if we hear and obey
Be gracious and forgiving to others, as was Jesus’ way
Per Hebrews twelve, we should run the race set before us
Laying aside our sin and disbelief, so they are superfluous
Remember that Jesus had joy despite enduring the cross
We should do likewise even if frustrated with energy loss
Our interactions with others can influence them in eternity
Remember how Jesus dealt with sinners and their hostility
Jesus loved us so we should similarly pass His love along
It is only God’s power, not our own, that makes us strong
At times, all we might need to do is obey by saying “yes"
Per Philippians four, we can thus abound in every mess
And reverting back to Philippians one, without a deletion
He who began a good work in us will bring it to completion
