A Pilgrim's Progress (Keep Runnin')
by Matt Papa

Album: Look & Live - Album Commentary


Lord I'm tired
I'm so tired from travelin'
And this straight and narrow is
So much harder than I thought

And on this path
I've met both doubt and pain
And I've heard their voices say
"Yeah, you've given all you've got."

But there's a cloud of witnesses
The ones who've run this race
And even louder than my fears
They're crying; "Warrior lift your face!"

And keep runnin', keep runnin'
Don't lose heart, don't you give up now,
And don't turn around
You got to find a way somehow

Keep reachin', keep fightin'
The pain cannot compare to the reward
That will be yours, that waits in store
For those who just keep runnin

And on this road,
This fight for holiness
I've struggled and I've bled
Through these dangers, toils and snares

And I have foes,
Their siren voices call,
Saying boy you're bound to fall
With that heavy cross you bear

But I remember there was One
Who died to win this race
HE took the cross, HE crushed the grave
And oh, I can hear my Savior say

Keep runnin', keep runnin'
Don't lose heart, don't you give up now,
And don't turn around
You got to find a way somehow

Keep reachin', keep fightin'
The pain cannot compare to the reward
That will be yours, that waits in store
For those who just keep runnin
Yeahhh
Don't turn aside
No compromise
Just lift your eyes
To the glory that's comin'

If you're like me
You feel like you can't go on
And you'll never see the dawn
And you're just about to break

But don't stop now
Know that every sacrifice
It'll all be worth the price
When you fin'ly see HIS face

Just keep runnin', keep runnin'
Don't lose heart, don't you give up now,
And don't turn around
You got to find a way somehow

Dig deeper, run harder
The pain cannot compare to the reward
That will be yours, that waits in store
For those who just keep

So take my hand
Because we can't
Do this alone
So till you hear well done
Until your race is complete
Find a way to just
Keep runnin'
Keep dreamin'
Keep darin'
Believin'
Keep workin'
Keep waitin'
Keep servin'
Keep prayin'
Keep movin'
Keep tryin'
Keep hopin'
Keep fightin'
Keep goin'
HE's waitin'
Arms open,
It's comin'
JUST KEEP RUNNIN'
