I Run To Him

I am clinging to the boat

I made with my self-will and self-sufficiency.

The storm flies quick about me,

A storm that God has sent to set me free.

I see my boat is breaking,

The pieces drift away.

The more I try to gain,

The more I lose.

I look out across the water.

I see a man standing there with eyes as fire.

While the waves are rising higher,

He's peaceful still, and walking on the sea!

I run to Him, I run to Him,

Across the stormy water,

To the safety of His heart.

I run to Him, I run to Him.

Where could I be safer, than in my Savior's arms? I run to Him.

I felt that I was strong enough,

Strong enough to keep my world from going wrong.

Strong and tough and angry,

I kept myself from feeling any harm.

Yet God knew how to break through

The protection that I built.

My careful hands can't save me,

But He can.

I run to Him, I run to Him,

Across the stormy water

To the safety of His heart.

I run to Him, I run to Him.

Where could I be safer, than in my Savior's arms? I run to Him.
