The only time I ever saw Him run

Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms

The day I left home I knew I'd broken His heart

And I wondered then if things could ever be the same

Then one night I remembered His love for me

          F                                      G               

And down that dusty road ahead I could see

                   Am           F 

It was the only time

It was the only time I ever saw Him run

Said "My son's come home again"

But now I know He's been waiting for this day
