This fight for holiness

And I have foes

Their siren voices call
F Am G F
Saying, ‘boy you’re bound to fall with that heavy cross you bear’
[Pre-Chorus]

But I remember there was One who died to win this race

If you’re like me

Know that every sacrifice, it’ll all be worth the price

When you finally see His face
