The Prize - First Call

A child of God

In the heat of it all

Staggering under the weight of the call

Eyes upon the only One who knows

The forerunner of my faith

Who for joy set the pace

Understands the war against my soul

He says move on

You gotta let it go

What’s done is done

You’re on a brave new road

So, I’m taking this

Taking this mighty load

And I’m leaving it behind

I’m gonna make it on

Make it on down the road

Reaching for the prize

For the prize

Every time I shed my skin

I find the courage once again

To aganize the agony of faith

Breathe in me the will to try

In my body magnify

To know that you have suffered not in vain

He says to hold on

You gotta let it show

You know what’s yours

Down this brave new road

Repeat Chorus

It heals a piece of my soul

When I shed my skin

And I leave it behind

And start over again

Shaking this mighty load

Oh, I’ve been staggering under

The heat of the call

But I get up and I move on after I fall

Making it down the road

He says move on

You gotta let it go

You know what’s yours

Down this brave new road

Repeat Chorus 2X

Keep reaching

Keep reaching

Reaching

Reaching for the prize
