We re pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who ve gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God s sustaining grace
Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who ve gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
-
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives
CHORUS:
(E) (A)
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
(F#m)
May the fire of our devotion light their way
() D
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
(Bm)
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
~
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift through all we ve left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find
REPEAT CHORUS(A step higher)
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
