New Song - "I Will Run"

Today I wrote a new song. Its a song about love, about a love that can close any gap, that can travel any distance, that can lift us up when we've fallen down. This song is called "I Will Run" which at first we feel like only we can run towards this kind of "love". Then towards the end it becomes quite clear that the other person (which I see as a loving God) has been the one running towards us all along.

There is nothing that we can do to close the gap between our weakness, our failures and our total disregard to God. It is only because He ran to us that we have been made new. Check out the lyrics ====>

I Will Run
Dave Longstreth -- August 26, 2008

I see you across the way
You’re standing there
Staring right at me
I take a breath
And I begin to breathe
And I start to move
Move across the way

I will run to you, yes I will
I will run, I will run
I will run to you, yes I will
I will run
When I've fallen down
When I've hit the ground
I will run, I will run, I will run
When I'm broken down
And feeling down
I will run

You've seen me on better days
Yet you moved to me while I was unaware
And you called my name
Sorry I did not hear
And I've acted like
Like I was not afraid

I will run to you, yes I will
I will run, I will run
I will run to you, yes I will
I will run
When I've fallen down
When I've hit the ground
I will run, I will run, I will run
When I'm broken down
And feeling down
I will run

I'm tired and I cannot see
That the distance between us
Seems so very long
But in my weaknesses
You have made me strong
And you've closed the gap
You're standing in front of me

You ran to me, yes you did
You ran, you ran
You ran to me, yes you did
You ran
When I fell down, when I hit the ground
You ran, you ran, you ran
I was broken down
I was feeling down
You ran

You ran to me, yes you did
You ran, you ran
You ran to me, yes you did
You ran
When I fell down, when I hit the ground
You ran, you ran, you ran
I was broken down
I was feeling down
You ran
