We're pilgrims on the journey of the narrow road,
And those who've gone before us light the way,
Cheering on the faithful, Encouraging the weary, 
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace.

Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses,
Let us run the race not only for the prize.
But as those who've gone before us,
Let us leave to those behind us 
A heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives.

Oh, may all who come behind us find us faithful,
May the fire of our devotion light their way.
May the footprints that we leave lead them to believe 
And the lives we lived inspire them to obey.
Oh, may all who come behind us find us faithful;

After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift through all we've left behind,
May the clues that they discover 
And the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find.

Oh, may all who come behind us find us faithful;
May the fire of our devotion light their way.
May the footprints that we leave lead them to believe 
And the lives we lived inspire them to obey.
Oh, may all who come behind us find us faithful;
Oh, may all who come behind us find us faithful!
