I Used To Run

I used to always run from you
It never dawned on me that's what I was doing
Now I am always running to you
In a way, I'm the one now pursuing

I can't put my finger on it
Why I was so afraid
But I think it was the Divine plan
How the foundation was laid

Now it's from everything else
From which I run
Nothing more important to me
Under the sun

You stopped me in my tracks
Now I can never run away
We're joined together forever
For eternity and a day

That

At first when you told me, I thought you had lied
When you said I couldn't stop thinking of you if I tried

At first this truth, I utterly denied
I realized from you, I cannot hide

You haunt my soul deep from inside
You left no room for my stubborn pride

My separateness from you has long ago died
Forever and ever our souls are tied

You say forget our pasts, just let them slide
"You belong to me now."you gently sighed

I submit to your way and I'll let you guide
What God has brought together, no one can divide

I'll patiently wait here for the big ride
It's worth the pain of waiting, a love bona fide
