I've been the judge, I've been the one assuming that I know what's best
Forgive me, Father, forgive me
I've sought my own justice, said in my heart, I'll do it my way instead
Forgive me, Father, forgive me
Back to the mercy seat, Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity, You are enough for me
I've trusted the gift more than the Giver, tried to sustain all I can
I'm sorry, Father, I'm sorry
For all of the times, I held on too long to things that belong in Your hands
I'm sorry, Father, I'm sorry, yes
Back to the mercy seat, Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity, You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat, Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity, You are enough for me
I fall on my knees again and I repent, I'm willing to be purified
Here I seek Your face again and I repent, Lord, I put You first in my life
I fall on my knees again and I repent, I'm willing to be purified
Here I seek Your face again and I repent, Lord, I put You first in my life
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Put You first, put You first, oh-oh
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
Back to the mercy seat, Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity, You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat, Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity, You are enough for me
