Racing Away

(Livgren-Pack)

I'm still losin' Time
Like a traveler out of touch with the life he left behind
This world ain't my home
I'm a stranger in my own backyard
But I'll never be alone

Time is so precious we waste it
Freedom so sweet we can taste it
But there are no boundaries in my dreams I go

Chorus:

Racing Away
On the Wings of Elijah, I'm on my way
Racing Away, to an endless season, to a better day

Please watch over me
From the breaking of the sunrise
'Til the end of every day
And every star you see
Above the crystal sky will mark the road where I will be

I lift my eyes to a new day
I see the world in a new way
Knowing no boundaries in my dreams I go

Chorus

Nothing we do ever works out the way we plan
Some things we're meant to know some we don't understand
Nothing we do ever works out the way we plan
There's a place I see, beyond my mind
When it's time to leave this world behind

I lift my eyes to a new day
I see the world in a new way
Knowing no boundaries in my dreams I go
