Running To A Runaway – Phil Wickham English Christian Lyrics

I cry to the mountain
From the shadows of my wilderness
The rivers of my hope are running dry
Praying for a light to break the sky
I cry to the heavens
From a weary heart with nothing left
I need You like I need the air I breathe
Even in the darkness I believe

You’re my defender when my enemies are everywhere
The One who finds me where I am, but doesn’t leave me there
My song of rescue when I have reached the end

I called Your name; You heard my cry
And led me out into the light
A Savior with a soul to save
You’re running to a runaway
What a God You are, what amazing grace
How You chased me down when I lost my way
A love that I could not escape
You’re running to a runaway

I cry to the Father
Reaching for a stronger hand than mine
I know I never should have wandered off alone
I should never be this far from home
But You won’t rest ’til You bring me back where I belong
There at the table by Your side like I was never gone
Hallelujah, what amazing love

I called Your name; You heard my cry
And led me out into the light
A Savior with a soul to save
You’re running to a runaway
What a God You are, what amazing grace
How You chased me down when I lost my way
A love that I could not escape
You’re running to a runaway

Runaway, runaway
You’re running to a runaway
Runaway, runaway

As I called Your name and You heard my cry
You led me out into the light
A Savior with a soul to save
You’re running to a runaway
What a God You are, what amazing grace
How You chased me down when I lost my way
A love that I could not escape
Oh You’re running to a runaway

Runaway, runaway
You’re running to a runaway
Runaway, runaway
I should have known that You’d be running to me
