Chords / Lyrics
INTRO
|C|Dm7(4)|Am7|F2|
|C|Dm7(4)|Am7|F2|

VERSE 1
C                Dm7(4)
 I've carried a burden
Am7               F2
 For too long on my own
C             Dm7(4)
 I wasn't created
Am7           F2
 To bear it alone
C                Dm7(4)
 I hear Your invitation
Am7            F2
 To let it all go
          C
I see it now
               Dm7(4)
I'm laying it down
          Am7|G(4)|F2
I know that I need You

CHORUS 1
             C
I run to the Father
            Dm7(4)
I fall into grace
                    Am7
I'm done with the hiding
              F2
No reason to wait
                 C
My heart needs a surgeon
                 Dm7(4)
My soul needs a friend
                    Am7
So I'll run to the Father 
           F2
Again and again
                C
And again and again

INTERLUDE
|Dm7(4)|Am7|F2|
Oh (x6)

VERSE 2
C               Dm7(4)
 You saw my condition
Am7                   F2
 Had a plan from the start
C              Dm7(4)
 Your Son for redemption
Am7               F2
 The price for my heart
C               Dm7(4)
 I don't have a context
Am7               F2
 For that kind of love
             C
I don't understand
              Dm7(4)
I can't comprehend
             Am7 G(4) F2
All I know is I need You

CHORUS

INTERLUDE (X2)

BRIDGE
                  Am7     F2
My heart has been in Your sights
            C/E       G
Long before my first breath
          Am7     F2
Running into Your arms
              C/E       G
Is running to life from death
            Am7              F2
I feel this rush, deep in my chest
              C/E     G
Your mercy is calling out
          Am7             F2
Just as I am, You pull me in
         C/E      G
I know I need You now

CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2
             C
I run to the Father
            Dm7(4)
I fall into grace
                    Am7
I'm done with the hiding
             F2
No reason to wait
                  C
My heart found a surgeon
                 Dm7(4)
My soul found a friend
                    Am7
So I'll run to the Father
           F2
Again and again
                C
And again and again

OUTRO

Oh, oh, oh, again and again

|Dm7(4)|Am7 G|F2 Dm7(4)|C|
