Chasing Love

looking back, looking forward

life is moving faster than i can hold it

years rush by

i'm let in the dust

chasing after memories

i will never catch

i keep running

in the wrong direction

away from the future

away from me

away from you

and people grow and people change

some chase other memories

some are chasing me

but im transfixed

chasing a time where happiness

wasnt a myth

but you, oh god, caught me in my race

held me while I cried and showed me your grace

the Lord turned me around

sent me running to his arms

and instead of chasing moments

i'll never catch

i'm chasing love i will always have

there are times where i falter

i fail

but the lord, my god,

never will

i am safe

i am loved

i am chasing

something worth running for

and in the end

on final days

when the race is done

i will rest

in paradise
