September sunlight through the clouds
Arms outstretched, the North, the South
The pavement pacing with your shoes
Racing the shadows of the trees
Dancing cover from the heat
Someone is looking out for you.
You’ve come so far, how far you’ve come
Go the distance
Into the arms where you belong
Love will bring you home,
Love will bring you home
We are hard-pressed on every side
We persevere through valleys wide
He will not cause your foot to slip
He sets the wind against your back
The finish near, it is not yet
Thanksgiving ever on your lips
Chorus
The bridegroom sun,
Runs across the sky,
With legs so strong,
He runs to meet his bride,
With every sunrise
You are my portion and my cup
Poured out for me, You fill me up
With oil You have anointed me
And as I run, I want to rest
To feel Your peace within my chest
Like Mary sitting at Your feet.
You’ve come so far, how far you’ve come,
Go the distance
Into your Father’s arms you run
Love will bring you home,
Love will be your home
Love will bring you home’
