When God Ran Almighty God, the great I am Immovable rock, omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord Victorious warrior, commanding King of Kings Mighty conqueror, and the only time the only time I ever saw Him run CHORUS: Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He caught me by surprise when God ran The day I left home I knew I’d broken His heart And I wondered then if things could ever be the same Then one night I remembered His love for me And down that dusty road ahead I could see It was the only time – it was the only time I ever saw Him run And then He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He caught me by surprise as He brought me to my knees When God ran – I saw Him run to me BRIDGE: I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away But now I know He’s been waiting for this day I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son”, He called me Son He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He ran to me and then I ran to Him When God ran by: Phillips, Craig, and Dean Almighty God, the great I am Immovable rock, omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord Victorious warrior, commanding King of Kings Mighty conqueror, and the only time the only time I ever saw Him run.... and the small lil boy laid in the bath tub with his peed undies on his head. Tears running down his face, he wondered why he was so "bad". Why did his parents walk away and leave him here? Why did they choose drugs over him. He pretended to sleep because when he woke up if he was "bad", his foster mom would lock him in that dark closet again. He hated being by himself. He hated the dark so much..... Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He caught me by surprise when God ran.... and she held him in her arms and cooed, "I love you. I will never leave you. It will be okay. I promise Jeffy. No one will ever hurt you again. It doesn't matterHthat you stole. You'll say sorry and we'll help fix it. It'll be okay...." And the little boy now a young man sobbed on his adoptive mother's lap and she held him tight and wiped his tears....
He ran to me and then I ran to Him When God ran... Up on that hill in the beautiful woods, with His arms opened wide...stood God. He watched Jeffy run. He watched him run so fast and so far, but determined as always,God never stopped chasing him. "Jeff, please don't do this. You've tried it so many times. Let's just relax and stay here. It'll be okay...I promise..." But Jeffy ran. He ran to his car. He held the gun in his mouth. He cried. He groaned into the phone...and with all the courage he could muster, he pulled the trigger. And God ran to Jeffy, "Come on home my Son...it'll be okay...I promise...and He took my Jeffy, my whole world and He loved him and He took away his pain...and he held him and now it is okay for Jeffy...just as He promised... |
