High prize
I was born, for a time, such as this
For its time, to run my race
To complete, Heavens call, for my life
Be conformed, to the image of Christ
May all I am, be for, the glory of the Lord
May my life, display all He is
CHORUS:
I run for the high prize
I press to the mark for the call
Forgetting what’s behind
See with Heaven’s eyes
I run for the high prize
I reach for the Glorious goal
If by any means I might
Fulfil the upward call
And finish for the prize
I will stand, in the armour of God
Every thought, lined up in Him
I am one, with the Lord, so His Strength
Is my power and victory
May all I am, be for, the glory of the Lord
May my life, display all He is
BRIDGE:
Reaching up
Pressing in
Relying on His power in me
Laying hold
Of all I can
For the destiny
To which I’m called
