Come Running

One of the songs that's been percolating in my mind now for a while, was bubbling in me today. So, today I sat down with God, and worked on it. I'm excited that the lyrics are now completed, and that the melody seems to be done as well. All I have right now are the melody and the lyrics, so I'm looking forward to adding more to it. I have enough though, to pray that it will be used for what I really wrote it for, here on my blog.

This song focuses, on how God loves all people. Weather we're a little girl playing princess, or we're someone who murdered a thousand people, God wants to intimately be our Father. Whatever we've done, or are doing wrong, weather we know the Lord or not, God wants desperately for us to draw close to Him.

If we choose to come to Him, God is our home here on Earth and in Heaven. Right here, right now, we get to come, and call Him home.

Come Running
***
Who is this God
who comes running
falling down upon His knees
arms open wide
saying come
child come
just as you are?
***
Who is this God
there hanging
from the nails upon the cross
arms open wide
saying come
child come
just as you are?
***
Who is this Father
hands shaking
eyes quivering with tears
He's crying on behalf of me
saying come
child come
just as you are?
***
Who is this Father
who'd give His son
in a Father's desperate love
to suffer on behalf of me
saying come
child come
just as you are
***
So come!
Come just as you are!
So come just as you are!
***
So come!
Come running
arms open wide
falling down upon your knees
to meet Him there
lost in His embrace!
***
So come!
Come dancing!
Wipe the tears upon His face
that He's crying as He waits
for you just to call Him home!
***
So come just as you are!
Come just as you are!
Come just as you are!
Come just as you are!
So come!
***
I come
come running!
I come arms open wide
falling down upon my knees
to meet You there!
Lost in Your embrace
I come just as I am!
***
I come
come dancing!
I wipe the tears upon Your face
that You're crying in a Father's desperate love
and I call You home!
***
I come!
I come!
I come and call You Father!
My Father!
My Father!
I come and call You friend!
My friend!
My friend!
I come just as I am!
Just as I am!
Just as I am!
Just as I am I call You home!
My home!
My home!
I come and call You home!
***
I come and call You home!
***
I come and call You home!
***
I come and call You home!
***
I come and call You home!
