WHERE IS THE FINISH LINE?

By the way where is the finish line?
Well it difficult for each one of us
The finish line that I have in mind
Is when we go be with the Lord
You might have forty years before you die or six months

That’s the interesting thing about this race
No one knows where the finish line is
And that makes this race just much tougher
Runners will tell you that they want to know
Where the finish line is

It doesn’t matter if they’re running
One hundred yards or a marathon
They must know where the finish line is
And then they get that finish line in sight
They block out everything else and concentrate
Fully and completely on the tape

That concentration on the finis
That keeping their eye on the mark
That’s what enable them to blot out
The pain and exhaustion and finish strong
Where is the finish line?

Those men have their backs to the finish line
So how can they possibly finish strong?
How do they pace themselves
And how do they know when to sprint?
If they can’t see the finish line and focus upon it
Then how in the world can they row an effective race?

We don’t finish strong
By focusing on the finish line
Because we don’t know where
The finish line is
We finish strong by fixing our eyes on Jesus
