Hebrews 12:1-2
1 There's a way before us and a race to run —
Christ our way, Christ our way!
Turn away from everything distracting us —
From the altar through the Holy Place,
Through the veil into our God,
2 There's a cloud of witnesses surrounding us,
There is Abel, Enoch, Jacob, Abraham,
John the Baptist greater than them all,
3 The Old Testament believers give the call,
For complete perfection they depend on us
We are at the consummation now
4 E'en the least of us is greater than their great.
We're not small, we're not small!
They are waiting, watching, and expecting us.
"Forward come!" hear their call!
They have run the race and for their sakes
