In a world of winners and losers, 
Some are used, some are the users; 
It's a push and shove race 
Of trying to get ahead. 
In the dust of all the confusion 
We make a choice, Truth or illusion; 
Will we listen to lies, 
Or hear what the Father says. 
[CHORUS] 
We are running in a human race, 
Where nobody wants to settle for second place; 
But we've got to run it at a different pace, 
Cause the first will be last and the last will be first 
At the end of the human race. 
In a day when values are changing, 
What kind of ground are we really gaining; 
Who are we trying to serve by going the extra mile. 
We can't trade the Truth for the fashion; 
we've got to live a life of compassion, 
And those we touch are the prize 
That waits at the finish line. 
(chorus) 
We are running in the human race; 
We must run it at a different pace, 
Cause we'll all meet the Father face to face 
At the finish line of the human race. (2x) 
(chorus)
