In the darkness, where everything is unknown

I faced the power of sin on my own

I did not know of a place I could go

Where I could find a way to heal my wounded soul



He said that I could come into His presence without fear

Into the holy place where His mercy hovers near

I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin' to the mercy seat

Where Jesus is callin', He said His grace would cover me

His blood will flow freely, It will provide the healing

I'm runnin' to the mercy seat, I'm runnin' to the mercy seat



Are you livin' where hope has not been

Lost in a curse of a lifetime of sin

Look, the illusions, they never come true

I know where there's a place of mercy for you



He said that you could come into His presence without fear

Into the holy place where His mercy hovers near

Come runnin', come runnin', come runnin' to the mercy seat

Where Jesus is callin', His grace will be a covering

His blood will flow freely, It will provide the healing

Come runnin' to the mercy seat
