Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wanna go the distance
Life is like a race, a marathon
Can't afford to miss it
I gotta make the most with this time I've got
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna be lukewarm
So light a fire in my soul
'Til I run the streets of gold
[Chorus]
I wanna get to heaven out of breath
Don't wanna waste no time when I cross the finish line
Oh Lord, I wanna hear You say
"Well done, my child and my friend"
When I get to heaven out of breath
[Verse 2]
A million miles a minute
Life is like a vapor and we're short on time
With every breath I'm given
I'll shout it from the mountaintops, I'll burn so bright
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna be lukewarm
So light a fire in my soul
'Til I run the streets of gold
[Chorus]
I wanna get to heaven out of breath
Don't wanna waste no time when I cross the finish line
Oh Lord, I wanna hear You say
"Well done, my child and my friend"
When I get to heaven out of breath
[Bridge]
Out of breath
Out of breath
Heaven out of breath
Oh, out of breath
Like a steam-rolling train, I'll be on my way
On my way until the wheels fall off
'Til I see Your face, walk through heaven's gates
I will run, I will run, I will run
[Chorus]
I wanna get to heaven out of breath
Don't wanna waste no time when I cross the finish line
Oh Lord, I wanna hear You say
"Well done, my child and my friend"
When I get to heaven out of breath
[Outro]
Out of breath
Out of breath
Heaven out of breath
Well done, my child and my friend
When I get to heaven out of breath
