Today I am sharing a song with you that I have been listening for quite some time now. It is entitled “Run to the Father” by Cody Carnes. I love the truth contained in the lyrics and the reminder that I think many of us need to hear today. Whenever we find ourselves goin through a troubled or trying time we should run to God the Father instead of away from Him because He is where our safety is. He is the source of the grace we need. He is where we find true life.
So run to the Father today as you read through these lyrics or sing along if you are able to follow the link to YouTube:
I’ve carried a burden for too long on my own
I wasn’t created to bear it alone
I hear Your invitation
To let it all go
I see it now
I’m laying it down
And I know that I need You
I run to the Father
I fall into grace
I’m done with the hiding
No reason to wait
My heart needs a surgeon
My soul needs a friend
So I’ll run to the Father
Again and again and again and again
You saw my condition
Had a plan from the startYour Son for redemption
The price for my heart
And I don’t have a context
For that kind of love
I don’t understand
I can’t comprehend
All I know is I need You
My heart has been in Your sights
Long before my first breath
Running into Your arms
Is running to life from death
And I feel this rush deep in my chest
Your mercy is calling out
Just as I am You pull me in
And I know I need You now
Much love,
Luke
