Lyrics:
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
I see it now
I’m laying it down
I know that I need You
CHORUS 1
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
INTERLUDE
VERSE 2
You saw my condition
Had a plan from the start
Your Son for redemption
The price for my heart
I don’t have a context
For that kind of love
I don’t understand
I can’t comprehend
All I know is I need You
CHORUS
INTERLUDE (X2)
BRIDGE
My heart has been in Your sights
Long before my first breath
Running into Your arms
Is running to life from death
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 1
CHORUS 2
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’ll run to the Father
Again and again
And again and again
OUTRO
Oh, oh, again and again and again and again
Oh, oh, oh, again and again

Great job on the harmony! She matched Matt's style very well.
Yes, Jesus
You are the light that shines from the cross without looking back. My heart is steadfast at the mention of your name. I always put you first before anything and that's the main priority.
Love love love this version with the deeper resonance of Matt's voice, the great harmonies and beautiful strings added. I also love the neutral colours of the room and the soft lighting on everyone. A very elegantly done video to boot!
wow <3
GOD Of Abraham Bless You All Abundantly. Amen
Great voice & great song as ever & forever
Repentance grows as faith grows. Do not make any mistake about it; repentance is not a thing of days and weeks, a temporary penance to be got over as fast as possible! No; it is the grace of a lifetime, like faith itself. God's little children repent, and so do the young men and the fathers. Repentance is the inseparable companion of faith. Amazing love that.. Another thing that jumps is the Cello is so spot on! Keep fighting the good fight~ Well Done!
My new favorite song!!!!!
Is this recorded in your house?! Lol
New favorite song.
Hey, Matt, I saw you last year in Conroe.
Only one question: Do you write songs to honor Mary and the faith of 20 centuries in our Church, or you are ashamed of…? Do you write for catholics, as well, or just for non-catholics christians, as it seems…? With all do respect.
Blessings.
love this song. Father I love you.Make me the man you created me to be. O lord I run to you because I am such an unworthy,broken person,I love you lord.
love this

love love LOVE Matt's version of this song!!!!!! Such a powerful song full of so much healing. Thank God I can run to Him again and again and again….. He's NEVER ashamed of me or what I have done! It's His loving kindness that leads me to repentance!
On my song list for this Sunday praise and worship. Can't wait to share it with the congregation. Great reminder that we're all broken vessels but God is the mender of all things. Amen
