The story
About this song
"Running To A Runaway" is a poignant and deeply moving song that speaks to the heart of God's unconditional love for those who feel lost or have strayed. The lyrics personify God as the one who actively pursues a "runaway," subverting the traditional narrative where the lost are expected to find their way back. It paints a vivid picture of a patient and persistent love, a relentless chase not of judgment, but of grace. The song's melody, which builds from an intimate beginning to a powerful climax, reflects the growing realization of God's unending pursuit and the comfort found in His embrace.
This track is the ninth song on the 16-song album, Song Of The Saints, which was released on 12 September, 2025. Within the album's collection, "Running To A Runaway" offers a message of profound hope and reconciliation. It serves as a reminder that no one is ever too far gone for God's love to reach them. The song's emotional depth and powerful storytelling make it a standout, resonating with anyone who has ever felt disconnected from their faith or a sense of belonging.
