Running Back To You

How can you forgive me When I've often gone astray How can You think of me When I do things my way Turning my back from You The One who loved me first Having my own desires Renewing worldly thirst You told me You loved me And I should make up my mind You tell me come back now But I keep wasting time Feeling so very weak You say I can be strong I feel I've gone too far You tell me to come home You love me still And I know this is real. And I am running back to You I see You're standing there for me Your arms are open wide And I don't have to cry no more You're standing there for me And I am running back to You Why did I go away When I know I am no good When I'm on my own You told me you could keep me But I've turned it away I've failed you so much now I don't know what to say Using the same excuse That I am just a man You tell me You've been there And show your nailed, scarred hands So I can see Now I know I am free And I am running back to You I see You're standing there for me Your arms are open wide And I don't have to cry no more You're standing there for me And I am running back to You Why did I go away When I know I am no good I have taken advantage of Your love & grace Forgive me Lord and take me home Take me home I'm running to you Jesus Please take me home See, I've been in this wrong way too long And I can't do right anymore I'm tired of pain And I don't like fear But Lord I want to be more sincere I never should have left Your side Return me to Your guiding light You're standing there for me And I'm running back to you
