Running for the Light lyrics

[Verse 1]
Someday war will be a memory
In the city with no end
Till then I am still running for the light
I'm all peace on the outside and fury within
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light

[Verse 2]
And all the times I turn away when things are goin' well
And all the times I need you when I cannot help myself
Your open arms, they greet me when I'm crawling back again
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light

[Verse 3]
I rise and fall like a wounded dove
There is peace and hope, there is joy and love
When hard times lead to harder and the road has many tears
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light

[Verse 4]
And there is a song that will linger forever in our ears
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light
In vain I try to hold on to the things I can't control
Like, what if something happened to the ones I love most?

[Outro]
Jesus, how you love me, how you take away my fears
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light
Oh Lord, I am still running for the light
