THE TWO RACES
by Bill Kochman
04-09-2014
This life is like a race, many people know,
Some folks run fast, while others run slow.
Some run for money, while others for fame,
But if the truth be told, it is Satan's game.
There is a race which many, so fail to see,
Its prize is not earthly, but for Eternity.
So many are called, to take part in this feat,
But Satan fights hard, to bring them defeat.
My son, you will never win if you never run,
And you will never run well, without the Son.
So keep your eyes on Jesus, He knows the way,
And you will be rewarded, on that Great Day.
