Gsus    G        Gsus        G
Courier valiant, bearing the flame
Gsus      G              A2
Messenger noble, sent in His name
Gsus       G       Gsus            G
Faster and harder, run through the night
Gsus      G            A2
Desperate relay, carry the light
C         D
Carry the light


[Chorus]
G  D             C       D
Runner, when the road is long
          C      D             G       C
Feel like giving in but you're hanging on
   G  D             C       D
Oh runner, when the race is won
         C      D     G   C   G   D
You will run into his arms


[Verse 2]
Gsus     G        Gsus         G
Obstacle ancient, chilling the way
Gsus  G                A2
Enemy wakened, stoking the fray
Gsus       G         Gsus         G
Still be determined, fearless and true
Gsus          G                A2
Lift high the standard, carry it through
C        D
Carry it through


[Chorus]
G  D             C       D
Runner, when the road is long
          C      D             G       C
Feel like giving in but you're hanging on
   G  D             C       D
Oh runner, when the race is won
         C      D     G   C   G   D
You will run into his arms


[Verse 3]
Gsus       G    Gsus       G
Mindful of many waiting to run
Gsus        G                  A2
Destined to finish what you've begun
Asus        A       Asus         A
Millions before you cheering you on
Asus          A                B
Godspeed dear runner, carry it home
D        E
Carry it home


[Chorus]
A  E            D       E
Runner when the road is long
          D      E             A       D
Feel like giving in but you're hanging on
   A  E             D       E
Oh runner, when the race is won
         D      E     A   D   A   E
You will run into his arms
