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
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.
And He brought me to my knees.
When God ran... I saw Him run to me.
I was so ashamed, all alone, and so far away.
But now I know, that 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
(When God Ran)
(I saw Him run to me)
And then I ran to Him
(When God ran)
When God ran
