Can't Escape
I knew Peter knew the feeling
Of this rude awakening
Who I am and who I should be
Are at war and I'm weakening
I try then I fail, fail then I try
But I can never seem to get it right
But You hold me close
And You hold me tight anyway
And You don't let go
Even when I try to run away
I could break the chains a thousand times
But I'd still be bound by Your love, and I
Can't escape Your love, O Lord
There's no use in covering
Something that I clearly did
The secret sins I'm keeping in
Too ashamed to lift my head
I fail then I try, and I try then I fail
I'm in a cycle of all this sin
But You blaze a path on this worldly trail
You take my shame and cover it
And from north and south
You seek and search to find me
Looking in and out
Of my fear and doubt, You guide me home
I could run as far as a million miles
And I'd still be bound by your love, and I
Can't escape your love, O Lord
This is friendship, no conditions
The Lord is a friend of mine
Overflowing with forgiveness
Giving grace and love and time
He gives His heart with such commitment
My God is love and love again, oh
'Cause You hold me close
And You hold me tight anyway
And You don't let go
Even when I try to run away
I could break the chains a thousand times
And I'd still be bound by Your love, and I
Can't escape Your love, O Lord
I can't escape Your love, O Lord
No, I can't escape, I can't escape Your love
No, I can't escape, I can't escape Your love
Of this rude awakening
Who I am and who I should be
Are at war and I'm weakening
I try then I fail, fail then I try
But I can never seem to get it right
But You hold me close
And You hold me tight anyway
And You don't let go
Even when I try to run away
I could break the chains a thousand times
But I'd still be bound by Your love, and I
Can't escape Your love, O Lord
There's no use in covering
Something that I clearly did
The secret sins I'm keeping in
Too ashamed to lift my head
I fail then I try, and I try then I fail
I'm in a cycle of all this sin
But You blaze a path on this worldly trail
You take my shame and cover it
And from north and south
You seek and search to find me
Looking in and out
Of my fear and doubt, You guide me home
I could run as far as a million miles
And I'd still be bound by your love, and I
Can't escape your love, O Lord
This is friendship, no conditions
The Lord is a friend of mine
Overflowing with forgiveness
Giving grace and love and time
He gives His heart with such commitment
My God is love and love again, oh
'Cause You hold me close
And You hold me tight anyway
And You don't let go
Even when I try to run away
I could break the chains a thousand times
And I'd still be bound by Your love, and I
Can't escape Your love, O Lord
I can't escape Your love, O Lord
No, I can't escape, I can't escape Your love
No, I can't escape, I can't escape Your love
