The God Who Stays

Lyrics

[Verse 1] If I were You I would've given up on me by now I would've labeled me a lost cause 'Cause I feel just like a lost cause If I were You I would've turned around and walked away I would've labeled me beyond repair 'Cause I feel like I'm beyond repair [Pre-Chorus] Oh, but somehow You don't see me like I do Somehow You're still here [Chorus] You're the God who stays You're the God who stays You're the one who runs in my direction When the whole world walks away You're the God who stands With wide open arms And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart From the God who stays [Verse 2] I used to hide Every time I thought I let You down I always thought I had to earn my way But I'm learning You don't work that way [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause somehow You don't see me like I do Somehow You're still here [Chorus] You're the God who stays (You're the God who stays) You're the God who stays (You're the God who stays) You're the one who runs in my direction When the whole world walks away You're the God who stands (You're the God who stands) With wide open arms (With wide open arms) And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart From the God who stays [Bridge] My shame can't separate My guilt can't separate My past can't separate I'm Yours forever My sin can't separate My scars can't separate My failures can't separate I'm Yours forever No enemy can separate No power of hell can take away Your love for me will never change I'm Yours forever [Chorus] You're the God who stays (You're the God who stays) You're the God who stays (You're the God who stays) You're the one who runs in my direction When the whole world walks away You're the God who stands (You're the God who stands) With wide open arms (With wide open arms) And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart From the God who stays You're the God who stays You're the one who runs in my direction When the whole world walks away You're the God who stands With wide open arms And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart From the God who stays
