Description
FINISH LINE
written by Sonia Lee & Gracie Hollombe Vandiver
I WAS RUNNING FROM MY DEMONS
BUT NEVER DID SUCCEED IN
FINDING A WAY TO LEAVE THEM BEHIND
MY LIFE WAS LIKE A MARATHON
AND ALTHOUGH I KEPT HANGING ON
IT FELT LIKE I WAS DYING INSIDE
CHORUS:
UNTIL I CROSSED THE FINISH LINE
AND GOT DOWN ON MY KNEES
I COULDN’T SEE THE FREEDOM
WAITING THERE FOR ME
WHEN I PUT THE BOTTLE DOWN
I DIDN’T KNOW THE GIRL I’D FIND
ON THIS SIDE OF THE FINISH LINE
I FOUND AN INNER STRENTH IN ME
AND A LOVING GOD WHO’S COMFORTING
AND FRIENDS WHO UNDERSTAND WHERE I’D BEEN
I STOPPED RUNNING FROM MYSELF
AND I LEARNED HOW TO ASK FOR HELP
I HAD ONLY TO SURRENDER TO WIN
CHORUS: (I DIDN’T KNOW THE PEACE I’D FIND)
BRIDGE: NOW THAT I’M ON THIS PATH
I DON’T REGRET THE PAST
BUT I’M NEVER GOING BACK
CHORUS: (I DIDN’T KNOW THE LIFE I’D FIND)
TAG: I’M THROUGH RUNNING AND RUNNING,
I’M READY FOR PEACE OF MIND
