This is one of those songs I never tire of hearing!

When God Ran
by Benny Hester

Almighty God, the great I am
Immovable rock, omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord
Victorious Warrior, commanding King of Kings
Mighty Conqueror, and the only time
The only time I ever saw Him run

is when He ran to me, took me in His arms
held my head to His chest, said "my son's come home again"
looked at my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
with forgiveness in His voice he said "son, do you know I still love you?"
it caught me by surprise, brought me to my knees when God ran

the day I left home, I knew I had broken His heart
I wondered then if things could ever be the same
then one night, I remembered His love for me
and down that dusty road ahead I could see
and the only time, the only time I ever saw Him run

Karma, I have never heard that song, but the words are wonderful!  I would love to hear it!

I'll see if I can find a MIDI for it, or something.

I know this topic is nearly a year old, but I just now saw it... You can listen to this song at http://members.aol.com/PattiPNE/private/GodRan.html. This was one of Benny's biggest hits.

Thank you.  I have so enjoyed listening to all that beautiful music!

Thanks so much, Michael.  I enjoyed that.  We certainly have a wonderful God who will take us into his arms and say, "My Son, Do you know I still love you?"  That's certainly comforting in times of stress and upset in our lives when we feel all alone.

Thank you for the musik and When God Ran
I love it to listen to that awesome musik but Pat you have given the right words for when we can listen to this musik.

I just decided to come back and listen to this song again that Oldiesman posted the link for and that Karma posted the words for last year!

I really like this one.

Beautiful song...Thanks.....I also love Michael W. Smith's songs too.

Thanks for the link and lyrics!
I have been blessed this morning!

So glad to see you posting, Tracy.

I just had to come back and listen to this again.  Wonderful song.

Lost my link for this so thought I'd come and listen again.
