Some of the songs which touch me the most are the ones that speak to my heart, the ones that describe exactly what I am going through (whatever that may be), and lift my downcast head towards Jesus.
One song that really touched me recently was "Run to Jesus" by Francesca Battistelli.
It says it all..from the struggle, the loneliness, to the answer - its all there. Waiting for you to take it, and believe. Grasp it and gain strength. Live it and be victorious!
Whatever you may be going through, perhaps this song will touch you as it did me!
Hey, lonely
Hey, sad eyes
Hey, you who needs some sunshine
All you gotta do is open up the blinds
Hey, worry
Hey, heartache
Help is not that far away
Just open up your eyes
He’ll be there, He’ll be there every time
[Chorus:]
When you’re all out of heart and out of hope
And you don’t really know which way to go
Come on, come on, run to Jesus
If you’re lost and you don’t know where to start
It don’t really matter where you are
Come on, come on, come on, yeah, run to Jesus, run to Jesus
Do you know that your story
Starts and ends with mercy
And it’s waiting in His arms
‘Cause He knows what you’re feeling
So don’t you stop believing
He’s got you right where you belong
[Chorus]
When you’ve reached the end of every road
And you’re a million miles from home
That’s when you run, run to Jesus
When the clouds have covered up the sun
And your strength is all but gone
That’s when you run, that’s when you run, that’s when you run
[Chorus]
When you’ve reached the end of every road
Just run to Jesus
Hey, sad eyes
Hey, you who needs some sunshine
All you gotta do is open up the blinds
Hey, worry
Hey, heartache
Help is not that far away
Just open up your eyes
He’ll be there, He’ll be there every time
[Chorus:]
When you’re all out of heart and out of hope
And you don’t really know which way to go
Come on, come on, run to Jesus
If you’re lost and you don’t know where to start
It don’t really matter where you are
Come on, come on, come on, yeah, run to Jesus, run to Jesus
Do you know that your story
Starts and ends with mercy
And it’s waiting in His arms
‘Cause He knows what you’re feeling
So don’t you stop believing
He’s got you right where you belong
[Chorus]
When you’ve reached the end of every road
And you’re a million miles from home
That’s when you run, run to Jesus
When the clouds have covered up the sun
And your strength is all but gone
That’s when you run, that’s when you run, that’s when you run
[Chorus]
When you’ve reached the end of every road
Just run to Jesus
