The Coach and the Athletes

 

When the people of Israel
murmured to Moses
he said, “What are we
that you murmur against us?”
But then he got angry with them
and threw the tablets of stone
When we go boldly before God’s throne

We’re like world class athletes by now
with all the facts but
we’ve got a foe
and need a coach
Thank God the Holy Spirit helps us

When the angel of heaven had
visited Mary
and said, “Blessed art thou
among women” she feared this
But he told God’s promise of what
the Holy Spirit would bring
and she’d be bearing our Lord the King

God tells us just what we need
just what to do
Thank God for comforts he gives
Such love God has for us

When the LORD worked to sanctify
young Jeremiah
who said, “I’m a child”
so afraid of their faces
then God put his words in his mouth
and he would use him to judge
He’d go destroying and raising up

All nations
God gives us words to say
to live the life that’s right

Who will win this race?

Grueling as a marathon

Who will win the prize?

Which is in their eyes
