just because I'd run away.
I'd turned my face from all you are.
Forgotten that you light the stars
And when the night came down and I finally saw
the things I'd done all standing near
I cried and wondered why you'd want to be near
a sinner in saints clothes.
But you picked me up and held me close.
And told me, "Child, I already know.
These things you've done can never cause
me to love you any less.
You are mine. And you are blessed.
And I will always love you."
Well I cried because I knew it was true.
All the things I've done against you
would never be held back against me.
It's a wonder, one I'll treasure close.
Yeah, I'm still running, but you know
that every day I'm just a mile closer
to a home that you are in.
There is no race. Nothing to win.
Cause I've already won all your love.
From the day I was born I was yours.
Call me by name, call me your bride,
take your daughter to your side
and hold me there until I cry.
Then tuck me in, light up my sky,
and stay beside me through the night.
Let me know
each time I wake
that you love me.
And that's something
no one
can take.
