Scripture reference

A voice cries: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD;
make straight in the desert a highway for our God." (Isaiah 40:3)

Words

1. In days of Pharoah's reign supreme
The faithful followed God's commands;
They were prepared to be redeemed
From Pharoah's unrelenting hand.

Chorus: As faithful children of the King
We must prepare to run the race,
Obeying Him in everything,
Continuing to trust His grace.

2. In days of darkness came a beam;
John called his faithful countrymen.
They were prepared to be redeemed
From Satan's wicked pow'r of sin.

Chorus: As faithful children of the King
We must prepare to run the race,
Obeying Him in everything,
Continuing to trust His grace.

3. Now ev'ry week we can partake,
Preparing to remember Christ;
The cup we drink, the bread we break
Remind us of His sacrifice.

Chorus: As faithful children of the King
We must prepare to run the race,
Obeying Him in everything,
Continuing to trust His grace.

4. And when someday this life is o'er,
'Twill be a day of joyfulness;
We'll be prepared for heaven's shore --
A gift of God's own faithfulness.

Chorus: As faithful children of the King
We must prepare to run the race,
Obeying Him in everything,
Continuing to trust His grace.
