Chords are E, B, and A throughout (with some phase and distortion)

I was reading about the brothers in the Book of Acts
How they went out to change the world 
and that's a matter of fact.
They were filled with the Holy Spirit by the power of God's Word.
It didn't matter to them if the world found it absurd.
They were beaten and tortured, stoned, and put in jail,
but no power on earth could stop them from doin' the Lords will.
Well the road is kind of long and you know it's very narrow,
but that don't matter to me because "His eye is on the sparrow"
I wanna be like those guys who lived their lives so wise
and persevere to the end so I can GET THE PRIZE!

CHORUS
I'm gonna run the race
I'm gonna set my eyes
on the finish line
I'm gonna get the Prize

2000 years ago Jesus came down from above
He came to the earth to show us how to live a life of love.
He's the Lamb of God, Light of the World, Prince of Peace.
He lived a perfect life and then He died like a thief.
He took my sins away by dying on a  tree
He gave me a home in heaven - made me part of His family.
Well the road is kind of long and I know it's very narrow
but that don't matter to me because His eye is on the sparrow.
I wanna please my Lord and live a life that's wise
and persevere to the end so I can GET THE PRIZE!
