When God Ran

Oh yeah (came on runnin')

Oh (came a-runnin')

Oh (came a-runnin' to me, came a-runnin')

Almighty God

The great I AM

Immovable Rock

Omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord

Victorious Warrior (victorious, victorious, victorious)

Commanding King of kings

Mighty Conqueror, and the only time

The only time I ever saw Him run, yeah was

Chorus 1:

When He ran to me (continuous echo: came a-runnin' to me, came a-runnin' to me)

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?" (do you know I love you)

It caught me by surprise when God ran

The day I left home (the day I said goodbye)

I knew I'd broken His heart

I wondered then if things could ever be the same

But one night (late one night)

I remembered His love for me

And down that dusty road ahead I could see

It's the only time, the only time I ever saw Him run was

Chorus 2:

When He ran to me (continuous echo: came a-runnin' to me, came a-runnin' to me)

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 (from my eyes)

With forgiveness in His voice He said, "Son, do you know I still love you?" (do you know I love you)

It caught me by surprise (by surprise, by surprise)

It brought me to my knees (to my knees, to my knees)

When God ran

Whoa, I saw Him run to me (came a-runnin' to me, ran to me)

And then I ran to Him (I ran to meet Him)

Holy One, righteous Judge

He turned my way

Now I know He's been waiting for this day

Chorus 3:

And then He ran to me (continuous echo: came a-runnin' to me, came a-runnin' to me)

Took me in His arms, held my head to His chest

Said, "My son's come home again!"

Lifted me up, wiped the tears from my eyes

With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again (with forgiveness)

He ran to me

Took me in His arms, held my head to His chest

Said, "My son's come home again!"

Lifted my face, wiped the tears away with forgiveness

He said, "son, do you know I still love you?" (you know I love you)

Oh, He ran to me (came a-runnin', etc.)

When God ran

Oh, oh yeah
