Music Monday: "Run"

This song is one that my oldest daughter and I heard at a recent Sanctus Real concert, and I really enjoyed the lyrics. I liked the verse when it talks about not losing heart when you feel low, and that you're not on your own. God is always with us, and it is so easy to forget in this busy, crazy world. We need to run to God, and rest in His arms of love. He is our true source for everything-- hope, help, strength and love. Run to Him, He is there, waiting for YOU with open arms.

"Run" by Sanctus Real

Wake up, oh my soul
You've been sleeping far too long
So wake up, oh my soul

Stand up and be known
You've been hiding far too long
Just stand up and be known

You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms of love

There's only one way to find your help
One place to lose yourself
One way to find your help

So reach out for your hope
Let these arms hold you close
Reach out for your hope

You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms of love

You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms of love

Don't lose heart when you're feeling low
When the road looks long and you don't know
If you have the strength to make it home
You're not on your own

Don't lose heart when you're feeling low
When the road looks long and you don't know
If you have the strength to make it home
You're not on your own

You're not on your own

You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms of love

You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms
You gotta run, run, run into the arms of love

1 Kings 8:57
May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake us.

2 Corinthians 4:15-17
All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.

Hebrews 4:16
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
