I ran for a long time. From people, from mistakes, from the version of me I did not want to face.
Then one day I stopped. And grace was already standing there.
I wanted you to hear this. Press play.

♪ The Day I Stopped Running
·
I spent my whole life chasing something
Never knew what I was chasing for
Had a pocket full of reasons
Had a suitcase full of plans
Kept on telling everybody
I was doing all I can
I could laugh above the noise
I could dance around the truth
But the man inside the mirror
Knew the things I wouldn’t lose
Then I ran out of excuses
Ran out of roads to take
And the moment I quit pretending
Was the moment I found my way
The day I stopped running
Love came running after me!
When I laid down all my burdens
I found room enough to breathe!
I don’t have to prove I’m worthy
I don’t have to hide my scars
I was searching for a thousand roads
When You were right here in my heart!
Oh, the day I stopped running
Was the day I started living!
I was running!
Running!
Now I’m living!
Living!
Hallelujah, I’m finally free!
I don’t need a perfect morning
I don’t need a flawless past
I have learned that even broken
Hearts can find their joy at last
There’s a song inside my breathing
There’s a rhythm in my feet
And the peace I kept on chasing
Found me right here in the street
I was looking for a doorway
I was begging for a sign
Then I found the greatest freedom
Was surrendering what’s mine
The day I stopped running
Love came running after me!
When I laid down all my burdens
I found room enough to breathe!
I don’t have to prove I’m worthy
I don’t have to hide my scars
I was searching for a thousand roads
When You were right here in my heart!
Oh, the day I stopped running
Was the day I started living!
No more pretending!
No more hiding!
No more fighting every wave!
I can laugh again!
I can dance again!
I don’t have to be afraid!
The day I stopped running
Love came running after me!
Now my feet have found a rhythm
And my soul has found its peace!
I don’t have to prove I’m worthy
I can bring You every scar!
I was searching for a thousand roads
You were with me where we are!
I stopped running!
I started living!
Oh, what a beautiful day!
Hallelujah!
I’m finally free!
