Song Lyrics

"When God Ran"

by Benny Hester
Album: Benny From Here

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 run I ever saw Him run

chorus:
Was when 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 from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice
He said "Son do you know I still love you'"
It caught me by surprise
(It brought me to my knees)
When God ran

The day I left home I knew I'd broken His heart
I wondered then if things could ever be the same
But 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

(chorus)

I saw Him run to me
And then I ran to Him
Holy One, Righteous Judge
He turned my way
Now I know He's been waiting for this day

And then 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 from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice
I felt His love for me
And then 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 from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice
He said "Son," He said,Son"
"My son do you know I still love you'"
Oh, He ran to me
When God ran
