Video+Lyrics: The God Who Stays – Matthew West
I would’ve labeled me a lost cause
‘Cause I feel just like a lost cause
I would’ve labeled me beyond repair
‘Cause I feel like I’m beyond repair
Somehow You’re still here
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
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, no
Somehow You’re still here
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 guilt can’t separate
My past can’t separate
I’m Yours forever
My scars can’t separate
My failures can’t separate
I’m Yours forever
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 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
