Actions
I'm running, running
 I'm trying to escape.
 I'm running, I'm running
 And it seems too late.
  
 I'm running, I'm running 
 But I keep looking back
 At the demons who won't stop
 As long as my heart's intact.
  
 As long as I hold on
 As long as I don't give in
 They'll be chasing me
 Desperate to win
  
 They won't "play fair"
 Or even give you a break,
 You'll just have to keep running, running
 Trying to escape.
  
 And they'll be chasing, chasing
 And they won't stop 'till it's all over
 They'll keep attacking, attacking
 Until it's too much to shoulder.
  
 But we can't give up
 This is something we must do
 Jesus took all the sins in the world
 For both me and for you.
  
 He showed both the Devil and us
 He's as strong as the Devil is weak,
 And as long as we're with him
 We can't be beat.
  
 But sometimes it gets tough
 The going gets a little rough
 And it feels like you've had enough
 But you have to learn how to call the Devil's bluff
  
 You have to learn how to see through the lies
 Defeat all his spies
 Recognize and realize
 Who you are to the father in the sky.
  
 So just keep running, running
 As they keep chasing, chasing
 And attacking, attacking
 Because sooner or later 
 You'll be the last one laughing
  
 Sittin' high up in your mansion in the glory kingdom
 Lavishing in the luxury of the greatest freedom 
  
 Spending everyday with family and friends you helped through the war
 You showed them the right way, helped them settle the final score
  
 And when you're done running, running
 And they stop chasing, chasing
 And they call off all the ones attacking attacking,
 You realize the whole timeYou've had the Holy Father's backing
  
 And there's nothing you can't do
 With God at your side
 As long as you're with him
 The Devil will flee at your sight.
  
 And sometimes you stumble
 It happens, you're human
 You have to fight your way back,
 It'll be hard, that's true AND
  
 It'll seem very lonely
 Like no one else is there
 No one to hear your screams
 No one to even care
  
 Like an army of a thousand
 Have come to attack you
 And no matter how hard you fight
 It seems the whole world's against you
  
 It seems you cannot win
 And all hope is lost
 But just remember who you are
 And what your freedom cost
  
 Remember your friends inChrist
 Your Brothers in faith,
 Ones who'll help you back up
 Who'll set you back into pace
  
 Because if one can beat a thousand, what can two do?
 Two Brothers in Christ can do anything that they need to.
  
 They can help you try
 They can help you survive
 They can point you towards the right light
 They can help you through this hard life
  
 But in the end it's still up to you
 And based on what you do
 Based on if you lived your life true
 Based on if you lived your life new
 You can live eternity in Heaven
  
 But just like someone helped you
 You should help someone too
 Because they get down and depressed
 So help them like someone helped you
 Do unto them, what you would want
 Done unto you
  
 We go through this life trying to get to a goal
 But we need to act like Jesus, to God we need to be sold
  
 Because the Devil attacks your thoughts
 He sends Demons to attack your heart
 But if you keep on keeping on
 You can get a new start
  
 Because in this life 
 We have to follow God the whole time
 Helping one another
 Thinking of your things as "God's", not "Mine"
  
 Because if you want to reach God's final attraction,
 Control what you do, for he judges your Actions.
