Running Home I can hear the heartbeat of the Father
verse 1:
i can hear the heartbeat of the father
i can hear the heartbeat of my father
i can hear the heartbeat of my father
i can hear the heartbeat of my father
as he carries me home, as he carries me home
verse 2:
i can hear the voice of my father
i can hear the voice of my father
louder than the thunder
speaking over me
“you are my beloved”
“you are my beloved”
yes, i am your beloved
i am your beloved
chorus:
i can hear the sound of a generation coming home
i can hear the sound of a generation coming home
oh, oh
we’re coming home, we’re coming home
we’re running home, hey!
oh-oh
oh-oh
we love you
how we love you
how we love you
how we love you
how we love you
how we love you
oh, how we love you
oh, how we love you
oh, how we love you
oh, how we love you
you’re the one who’s always running down my road
you’re the one who’s always running down my road
covering me with affection and clothing me in mercy
we cannot outrun your love
we cannot outrun your love
you’re the one that’s always running
you’re always running
you’re always running
covering me in affection and clothing me in mercy
we drink it in
we drink it in
we drink it in
it’s not one time, not two times, not a hundred times
it’s thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands of times
we drink it in
we let the weight of your mercy cover us from head to toe
we let the weight of your mercy
let it wash us
let it wash away the shame and the filth
you cover us in your affection
and you surround us in your mercy
and we drink it in
we drink it in
we drink it in
there’s no anger in your eyes
there’s no anger in your eyes
there’s no anger in your eyes
there’s no anger in your eyes
drink in your mercy
drink in your mercy
you call me beloved
you call me beloved
you call me beloved
you call me beloved
you call me beloved
you call me beloved
we choose to believe it, god
we choose to believe it
