Commissioned Running Back To You lyrics

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 on you
The one who loved me first
Seeking my own desires
Renewing worldly thirst

You told me, you could keep me
But I've turned it away
I 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 have been there
And hold your nail

Scarred hands, so I can see
Now I know I am free

And I am running back to you
I see your standing there for me
Your arms are opened 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 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 have been there
And hold your nail

Scarred hands, so I can see
Now I know I am free

And I am running back to you
I see your standing there for me
Your arms are opened wide
And I don't have to cry no more

You're standing there for me
And I am running back to you
Why do I go away when I know
I am no good when I'm on my own

I have taken advantage of your love and grace
Forgive me Lord and take me back home, take me home
I'm running to you Jesus please take me home
You see I've been in this run 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
Please take me to your guiding light

I'm running back to you
And I see your standing there for me
Your arms are opened wide
And I don't have to cry no more

Because 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
