The God Who Stays Lyrics

If I were You I would've given up on me by now

I would've labeled me a lost cause

Cause I feel just like a lost cause 

If I were You I would've turned around and walked away 

I would've labeled me beyond repair 

Cause I feel like I'm beyond repair 

But somehow You don't see me like I do

Somehow You're still here 


You're the God who stays

You're the God who stays

You're the one who runs in my direction

When the whole world walks away 


You're the God who stands 

With wide open arms 

And You tell me nothing I have ever done 

Could separate my heart

From the God who stays 


I used to hide

Every time I thought I let You down

I always thought I had to earn my way

But I'm learning You don't work that way

Somehow You don't see me like I do

Somehow You're still here 


You're the God who stays

You're the God who stays

You're the one who runs in my direction

When the whole world walks away

You're the God who stands

With wide open arms

And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart

From the God who stays


My shame can't separate

My guilt can't separate

My past can't separate

I'm Yours forever 


My sin can't separate

My scars can't separate

My failures can't separate

I'm Yours forever 


No enemy can separate

No power of hell can take away

Your love for me will never change

I'm Yours forever 


You're the God who stays 

You're the God who stays 

You're the one who runs in my direction 

When the whole world walks away 

You're the God who stands 

With wide open arms 

And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart

From the God who stays 


You're the God who stays

You're the one who runs in my direction

When the whole world walks away

You're the God who stands

With wide open arms

And You tell me nothing I have ever done 

can separate my heart

From the God who stays
