lyrics

he's been drifting away
to his homeland
where the waves roll and toss
Like his sister's kitten with yarn

History is recorded
everyday
will it make a difference
in the end anyway

The headlines are flashing and flickering
telling us to run for our lives
the clock is flashing and flickering
telling us it's time

The pressure it will come and the pressure it will go
The wanderers will sigh as they wander to and fro
Knowledge shall be known, and there's knowledge no one knows
We're not known by what we boast but by the love we show

And he's been fading away
from his Lover
Who is steadfast and strong
like the currents in the bottom of the sea

and he's been asking a question
many days now
if he's sure and confident
in himself

The headlines are flashing and flickering
telling us to run for our lives
the clock is flashing and flickering
telling us it's time it's time

These blessings are not from mine, but the One who makes us whole
we'll lift our hands up high, as we let our praises roll
we've chosen to be alive, so lets not lose our soul
i'm burning up inside, and that's what fuels the grow

We ain't gonna run to the past long gone
we're gonna turn our eyes to the breaking of the dawn

We're gonna set our faith in the Risen Son

Run to the Son
