lyrics

A rejected race & everyone knows
Locked in their gaze as I approach
My little child bound by evil will
I must come close, I can't stand still
A crumb from You would be more than my fill

If I could run away I - I would run to You
If I could fly away I - would fly back to the truth
Though I were a dog I'd eat the crumbs of my Master's food
If I could run away I - I would run to You

Three times denied - the rooster crows
How can I hide what He already knows?
He looks my way - I'm pierced right through
I've betrayed my King with words I can't undo
The deed is done - where can I run?

If I could run away I - I would run to You
If I could fly away I - I would fly back to the truth
You have the Words of life - Who else could I ever run to?
If I could run away I - I would run to You

The soul inside this body, wrestling with doubt
Lord, am I in or am I out?
To turn away from You is to run inside of me
And that hiding place is a deadly enemy
Faithless, I fear rejection - still to You I come
My only merit - Christ's redemption
My only hope - Your Son.

If I could run away I - I would run to You
If I could fly away I - I would fly back to the truth
Though You slay me, yet by grace would I follow You
If I could run away I - I would run to You

Raise your hands up weak and broken
Raise your hands and stand up tall
Such are the children of my Father - the children of my God
He came to heal that which was sick
He came to find that which was lost
His is a saving and a keeping grace
He Who began this good work will see that we finish this race

If I could run away I - I would run to You
If I could fly away I - I would fly back to the truth
Keeper of the stars You have the strength to keep me too
If I could run away I - I would run to You
