Lyrics
There is a torch, there is a flame

Symbols of the greatest games

To be the best, to win it all

To hear them play our country's song

And see our banner wave

Like the sweat that drops from me

And all the years of my training

Symbols of a greater goal

Faithful to a higher goal

And if I stumble and know the pain of defeat

Or if i finish strong and taste sweet victory

Chorus

Together we have come to believe

Together that when the flame is gone

We want to world to know

That we have come seeking more than gold

Pressing for the finish line

In this race to qualify

Some have come in search of fame

But we compete in Jesus' name

When we finish strong

And taste sweet victory

Or when we stumble

And know the pain of defeat

Chorus

(instrumental break)

Chorus (x2)
