Chords for When God Ran

I feel the presence of the Lord moving still.
There's a song that we [C#] sang _ [G#] many years ago.
I don't even know, where did you find this song?
Well, [F#]
this _ [B] song actually was [G#] recorded many years ago by a young man named [C#] Benny Hester.
_ And I [C#m] begged these guys to do this song for two or three [F#] albums.
[G#m] Like knuckleheads, they wouldn't listen to me.
[F#m] _ _ [G#] _ [C#] But this song has a tremendous, powerful message.
And I've known people [G#] that thought [A#m] somehow they had [C#] walked beyond God's grace. _
It's a wonderful thing to know that He reaches us no matter where we go and His love reaches [G#] for us.
His hand is extended.
_ And I want you to [A#m] listen to the words of this song tonight.
If you [C#] maybe walked into this building and [D#] feel a long ways [A#m] from your Heavenly Father.
_ _ [G#] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#] Almighty God, _ _ _ _ [G#] the great I Am, _ _ _ _ immovable Rock, _ omnipotent, powerful, [C#] _
awesome Lord, _ _ _ _ _ [G#]
victorious
warrior, _ _ _ _ [F#]
commanding King of [G#] Kings, mighty conqueror.
And [A#m] the only time, [Fm] _ _ _ _
[A#m] the only time I ever [G#] saw Him run was _ _ when [C#] He ran to me.
He [A#m] took me in His arms, [F#] held my head to His chest, [G#] said, My son's come home [C#] again, lifted
my face, [A#m] wiped the tears from my eyes [F#] with forgiveness in His voice.
He [A#m] said, Son, do you [C#] know I [F#] still love you?
[G#] _ _ _
_ [A#m] He caught me [C#] by surprise _ [G#] when God ran. _ _ _
_ _ [C#] When I left home, _ _ I knew I'd broken His heart. _
_ _ [F#] And I wondered if _ [G#]
things could ever [C#] be the same.
[G#] Then one night, I remembered His love for me.
And so [F#] down at the zero _ [G#]
ahead I could see it [A#m] was the only _ time, [F#] _ [A#m] it was the only [C#] time
I ever [G#]
saw Him run.
_ _ And [C#] then He ran to me.
[A#m] He took me in His arms, [F#] held my head to His chest, and said, [G#] My son's come home [C#] again,
lifted my face, [A#m] wiped the tears from my eyes [F#] with forgiveness in His voice.
I [A#m] said, Son, [G#] do you know I [F#] still love you?
[G#] _ _ _ [A#m] He caught me by [C#] surprise.
Yes, He did.
[A#m] And He brought me to [Fm] my knees.
When [G#]
God ran, _ _ _ I [C#] saw Him run to [A#m] me.
_ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ [G#] I _ _ [C#] was so ashamed, _ [F#] all alone [G#] and so far away.
_ _ _ [F#] But now I [C#] know _ He's been [G#] waiting for this _ _ day.
_ [C#] _
_ _ [A#m] He took me in His arms, [F#] held my head to His chest, and [G#] said, My son's come home [C#] again,
lifted my face, [A#m] wiped the tears from my eyes [F#] with forgiveness in His voice.
I [G#] felt His love for me [C#] again.
And then He ran to me.
He took me in His arms, [F#] held my head to His chest, and [G#] said, My son's come home [C#] again,
lifted my face, [A#m] wiped the tears from my eyes [F#] with forgiveness in His voice.
[A#m] He said, Son, _ _ _ _ _ [F#] He called me son.
He called me son.
[C#] He said, Son, do you know I still love _ _ [G#] _ _ _ [C#] you?
He ran to _ [A#m] _ me.
He [F#] took me in His arms, _ [G#] held my head to His [C#] chest, and said, My son's [A#m] come home again,
_ lifted [F#] my face, wiped the tears from my eyes with forgiveness [G#] in His voice.
I want _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ _ you to reach over right now to the person who's next to you, and I want you to take them by the hand.
If you could do that.
_ _ [F#] Because the three of us are pastors and ministers,
and we [C#] recognize when the Holy Spirit [F#] is moving in an audience.
_ [C#] And in an audience of this size, we know that there are people here, that that song was just [F#] for you.
And I don't know if you even know the person whose hand you're holding [C#] right now, but I want you to pray for them. _
Like it was your own kin.
I want you to pray for them like it's [G#] your prayer.
That's the only prayer that's going to help them to reach up and touch the hymn of a merciful Savior.
Would you pray for the person whose hand you're holding?
And those of you watching on this DVD, you may be in a lonely bedroom somewhere, hotel room.
[C#] You may be on a plane watching this on your DVD player.
The Spirit of the Lord is coming to you right now.
It [F#] is not His will that any should perish, but all come to repentance [D#] to be joined together.
In the name of Jesus. _
