An Olympic Story..

When Eric was four, his father read in the newspaper how a Scotsman, Wyndham Halswelle, had won second place in the four hundred-meter race in the Olympics, the first Scot ever to win an Olympics medal in track. When his father tried to explain this to Eric and his older brother, Eric asked whether that meant that no Scotsman had ever finished first. The answer was yes.

Eric's parents took him and his older brother to a boarding school for sons of missionaries in England, and then they returned to China. At school both boys excelled in rugby, cricket, and track. Eric set a school record of 10.2 seconds in the one hundred-meter dash.

Eric attended the University of Edinburgh, where he continued to excel in track. He quickly emerged as the fastest sprinter in Scotland and became a national hero.

In college his older brother was active with other Christian college students in holding evangelistic meetings throughout Scotland. When Eric was invited to speak at one of these rallies in 1923, he accepted. The next morning every newspaper in Scotland announced that Eric Liddell had preached at an evangelistic service, The experience stirred Eric's soul. It gave him a desire to share the gospel with whomever would listen. Over the next two years he spoke to thousands throughout the British Isles, men and women who came to hear the famous athlete but who returned to hear his message of salvation. Yet newspaper questioned Eric's commitment to running since he was spending so much time preaching.

The Olympics were to be held in Paris in 1924, and the hopes of England were now pinned on the young Scot as the nation;s champion sprinter. Eric's best event was the one hundred-meter dash, but when the schedule for the Olympics races was published, the first heats for the one hundred-meter were on a Sunday. Eric held his conviction that he was never to race on Sunday and refused to do so. The English Olympic committee tried to have the date for the first heats changed but to no avail.

As a result, Eric was entered in the two hundred and four hundred meter races, event in which he was not at all as dominant as the one hundred meters. The British press attacked him mercilessly ." A traitor to Scottish sporting, to all that Wyndham Halswelle stood for!" announced one newspaper.

On the Sunday of the one hundred meter trial in Paris, Eric preached in the Scots Kirk, the Scottish Presbyterian Church in Paris. In the one hundred meter trials, Harold Abrahams was the one English sprinter to qualify for the finals the next day.

Harold Abrahams won the one hundred meter race, the first British runner to win a gold medal in the Olympics. Eric saw that this was just part of God's plan.

On Wednesday Eric finished second in the two hundred meter dash, the first Scot ever to win a medal in the 200 meters. But there was still one race to go.

Eric qualified on Thursday for the four hundred meter finals. But he was far from being the favorite. The finals were held on Friday , July 11, 1924. As he prepared to go to the stadium, the team masseur handed Eric a small folded piece of paper. It read " He that Honors me I will honor" quoting 1 Samuel 2:30. Eric Liddell won the four hundred meter race, setting a new world record of 47.6 seconds. He was the first Scot to win Olympic Gold in track.

Always be my baby

We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine

Now you want to be free
So I'm letting you fly
Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die
No!

You'll always be a part of me
I'm a part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby

I ain't gonna cry no
And I won't beg you to stay
If you're determined to leave girl
I will not stand in your way
But inevitably you'll be back again
Cause ya know in your heart babe
Our love will never end no

You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby

I know that you'll be back girl
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder oooohhh
I know that, you'll be right back, babe
Ooooh! baby believe me it's only a matter of time

You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my my baby....

You'll always be a part of me (you will always be)
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on (we will linger on....)
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby

Always be my baby

Over You

Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
Well I'm putting my heart back together,
'Cause I got over you.
Well I got over you.
I got over you.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

Over You - Daughtry
