	Lyrics BEFORE I RUN Hanging on the edge again Up where the air is hard to breathe I tried to make it to the top But stumbled to my knees Lord when will I ever learn How many times must I fall down Before I learn to wait on You To plant my feet on higher ground There’s a road that You’ve determined That I should walk until the end And I don’t know where it will lead me But I know on Whom I depend CHORUS I want to climb the highest mountain Go where no one else has trod Yet I’ll not get there by my own strength But in the strength of God I’ll never reach my full potential Until His work in me is done I need to learn to walk with Him before I run I tried to make a difference I did my best to do my part But was reminded once again That only God can change the heart The measure of a godly man Is not how much good he may do But how much he trusts in the Lord To help him live a life that’s true I know of no greater achievement Than losing everything for Him For in Jesus there is greater gain Than anything this world can lend REPEAT CHORUS I’ve learned that I cannot supply The outcomes I have come to cherish most So I will trust in Him alone To bring a harvest from what I’ve sown REPEAT CHORUS
