Lyrics
If I've seen it once, I've seen it a thousand times Some kinda hot-shot, ain't-snot comes up to the starting line Knuckles and toes, and he is ready to go And at the sound of the gun, there's a flash, And he is gone... Yeah, he's gone... You can see him on the side about... mile five Some sorta red-faced go-no-place looking barely half alive So tell me, Ace, did you think this race was just a 5K sprint? Well, you're wrong... It's a marathon. Chorus: You gotta keep on keeping on Stay fit, and don't you quit You can make it, if you move along 'Cause it's a long race, steady pace Or you'll end up on your face Steady on! It's not a sprint, It's a marathon. It's a marathon. Well, this Christian Life is not a flash of light It takes training and endurance To last throughout this night! Remember to pray, each and every day And set aside the weight Of that past that you hate On this Marathon. On this Marathon. Chorus:(2x)
