Verse

Almighty God, the great I am
Immovable rock,omnipotent,powerful awesome Lord
Victorious Warrior, commanding King of Kings
Mighty Conqueror, and the only time 
The only time I ever saw Him run 

Chorus

Was when He ran to me, He 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?"
He caught me by surprise, when God ran

Verse

The day I left home I knew I'd broken His heart
And 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 was the only time
It was the only time I ever saw Him run

Chorus

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
He said,"Son,do you know I still love you?"
He caught me by surprise and brought me to my knees
When God ran, I saw Him run to me.

Bridge

I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away
But now I know He's been waiting for this day

Outro

I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest
And 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, He 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 called me Son
He said ,"Son do you know I still love you?"
He ran to me
And then I ran to Him
When God ran
