From the recording Run Away
Lyrics
Turn my head and walk on by
Feel the guilt rise up inside
I stuff it down, believe the lie
That I couldn’t make a difference if I tried
I don’t like sitting in this tension
But I believe that we’re all image bearers
So I don’t really wanna run away from this
I don’t really have a lot to give
But I could share your burden
I could help you carry
I could bear the weight
After all, we’re not in this alone
Lift your head, open your eyes
See the hurting, see the tired
Don’t give in and don’t give up, yea
You gotta share the bread and share the cup
Maybe I could be the difference (difference)
Freely I’ve received, so freely I’ll give
I don’t really wanna run away from this
I don’t really have a lot to give
But I could share your burden
I could help you carry
I could bear the weight
After all
It’s gonna get brighter
It’s always darkest before the light
It’s gonna get harder
But this is worth doing right
It’s gonna get brighter
We’ll help each other on through the night
It’s gonna get better
But we’ve gotta stay in the fight
It’s gonna get brighter
It’s always darkest before the light
We’ll do it together, ‘cause you are worth it
I don’t really wanna run away from this (run away, run away from this)
I don’t really have a lot to give
But I will share your burden
I will help you carry
I will share the weight
After all, we’re not in this alone
