When God Ran - song lyrics

Lyrics to ‘When God Ran’, by Benny Hester, 1985

Almighty God,

The Great I Am,
Immovable Rock,
Omnipotent,
Powerful,
Awesome Lord,
Victorious Warrior,
Commanding Kind Of Kings,
Mighty Conqueror

And the only time,
The only time I ever saw Him run
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,
When God ran

The day I left home,
I knew I had broken His heart
I wondered then
If things could ever be the same

Then 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
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

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 again

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.
