Truly in the Race

Where are my ambitions? What are my dreams?
Are my thoughts truly going for Your plan for me?

And when I strive for the goal, and I'm in the race,
Are my actions running Your holy way?

I want to say that I'm pure and I want to prove my love;
But am I really excepting all Your dreams for me?

I want to say I'm a Christian, a believer at the cross,
But are my actions all that I say, Am I truly in the Race?

Is this costing me anything? To stand in Your Army is
Just one small thing, but to fight and die in the battle...am I willing

There's nothing more I long for than Your face
But the harvest is so plenty and Your children are so few.

I say that I love You Lord, and anything for You I'd do.
You say "Child you have your words right, now go and feed my sheep."

Am I truly in the race or am I fighting my own fight?
Are my actions really showing You through me?

Is this costing me anything, to stand in Your Army is one small thing
But to fight and die in the battle..am I willing?

Am I truly, really living and dying Your holy way?
Oh Lord, Am I truly in Your race?

An example to others of what You have done,
Of what You are doing in me.
