Lyrics

Verse 1

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

Pre Chorus 1

I see it now
I'm laying it down
And I know that I need You

Chorus

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

Refrain

Oh oh oh

Verse 2

You saw my condition
Had a plan from the start
Your Son for redemption
The price for my heart
And I don't have a context
For that kind of love

Pre Chorus 2

I don't understand
I can't comprehend
All I know is I need You

Chorus

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

Refrain

Oh oh oh
And again and again

Refrain

Oh oh oh

Bridge 1

My heart has been in Your sights
Long before my first breath
Running into Your arms
Is running to life from death

Bridge 2

And I feel this rush deep in my chest
Your mercy is calling out
Just as I am You pull me in
I know I need You now

Chorus

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

Chorus

I run to the Father
I fall into grace
I'm done with the hiding
No reason to wait
My heart found a surgeon
My soul found a friend
So I run to the Father
Again and again
And again and again

Refrain

Oh oh oh
And again and again
