09. Runaway

Whispered And Shouted
by Aaron Shust



 

I would leave My world behind
Give up everything that’s mine
If I could know you
I would leave behind My home
Enter your world all alone
If I could find you
It doesn’t matter if you run away
It doesn’t matter if you hide
I would leave my world far behind
This love inside of Me; it’s never gonna die
And I don’t care how far away you roam
No I don’t care how far away you roam
I’ll come running out with open arms to welcome you back home
I’ll come running out with open arms to welcome you back home
I would love to see our name
Engraved upon a picture frame
On my mantle

I would love to see your face
Every morning as you wake up
To see Me
I just wish that I could talk to you
Because I love you more than life




Behind the Song:
"This song was one of my first attempts at the treacherous art form of writing from God’s perspective. What is very interesting to me is how my theology has evolved since the time I wrote it. My original lyric But that won’t happen if you run away changed to It doesn’t matter if you run away. A line that said Until I find you wandering alone changed to I don’t care how far away you roam. I loved this song and wanted to record the original version as a little tribute to the past, but that would have meant singing lyrics that I didn’t really believe anymore. What I do believe is that it doesn’t matter if we run away or hide. I don’t believe that God can’t find us if we run away, and I don’t believe God has to search for us, as if He didn’t know exactly where we are and what we’re doing. Like the father of the prodigal son, He comes running out with open arms and always welcomes His wayward children back home." - Aaron Shust
