Hello.

I just wanted to post the Christian Song that had a lot of effect on my life when I contemplated and reflected on it. This song really inspired me and is close to my heart.

WHEN GOD RAN
Phillips, Craig & Dean
Restoration

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

CHORUS:
Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said,
"Son do you know I still love you?"
He caught me by surprise when God ran

The day I left home I knew I'd broken His heart
And 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
It was the only time - it was the only time I ever saw Him run

And then He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said,
"Son do you know I still love you?"
He caught me by surprise as He brought me to my knees
When God ran - I saw Him run to me

BRIDGE:
I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away
But now I know He's been waiting for this day

I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again

He ran to me, He took me in His arms
Held my head to His chest, said "My son's come home again"
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
With forgiveness in His voice He said, "Son", He called me Son
He said, "Son do you know I still love you?"
He ran to me and then I ran to Him
When God ran


Anyone else have a song that affected their life?

any barlowgirl song i can realte to every barlowgirl song i know but here are some of my faves


Mirror
BarlowGirl
Mirror, Mirror on the wall; Have I got it?
'Cause Mirror you've always told me who I am
I’m finding It’s not easy to be perfect
So sorry, you won’t define me
Sorry, you don’t own me

Chorus
Who are you to tell me
that I’m less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you? yeah yeah
I don’t need to listen
to the list of things I should do
I won’t try; no I won’t try

Mirror I am seeing a new reflection
I’m looking into the eyes of He who made me and
To Him I have beauty beyond compare
I know He defines me yeah yeah

Chorus
You don't define me(x4)(no u don't define me)(x3)
Chorus(x2)


Psalm 73 (my God's enough)
BarlowGirl
I've had enough of living life for only me
And reaching just for the things that keep destroying me
So sick of envying the lives of so many I see
Somehow believing that they have what I need

[Chorus:]
My God's enough for me
This world has nothing I need
In this whole life I've seen
My God's enough, enough for me
I can't explain why I suffer though I live for You
Those who deny You they have it better than I do
Cover my eyes now so that my heart can finally see
That in the end only You mean anything

Who have I in heaven but You
Nothing I desire but You
My heart may fail but not You,
You are mine forever


Thoughts of You
BarlowGirl

thoughts of You and how You changed me
fill my mind
without You where would i be?
so even though i've tried to express my thanks
it never comes out how i hoped
i always want to say so much more
so with these simple words i'll try

[chorus]
i love You
my heart is Yours, only Yours
i long to give You all of me
my everything, my everything

God, i never could repay You
You gave everything
without You where would i be?
You still loved me even when i
pushed You away
You stood there and waited
till the day i'd return

so even though i've tried to express my thanks
it never comes out
i want to say so much more
so with these simple words i'll try

i love You
my heart is Yours, only Yours Jesus
i want to give You all of me

i love You
I love you
my my heart is Yours, only Yours
i long to give You all of me
my everything, my everything
Yeah Yeah

thoughts of You and how You changed me
fill my mind

the last one is

I Need You To Love Me Lyrics
Why, why are You still here with me
Didn't You see what I've done?
In my shame I want to run and hide myself
But it's here I see the truth
I don't deserve You

[Chorus:]
But I need You to love me, and I
I won't keep my heart from You this time
And I'll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need You to love me

I, I have wasted so much time
Pushing You away from me
I just never saw how You could cherish me
'Cause You're a God who has all things
And still You want me

Your love makes me forget what I have been
Your love makes me see who I really am
Your love makes me forget what I have been
