My Great Escape

When I want to run;
Leave behind it all
When I feel trapped here
In this hardened wall.
In Your arms I dream
Of love ever after
Leaving long behind
Consume life's disaster.

Chorus
Oh Lord, hold me close
Whisper in the wind
Until at last I can
Face it all again.
I want run to you,
The air that I breathe
My soul's true freedom,
You are all I need.
Jesus it is you
My Great Escape

Love within your arms
You're my great escape
All around me now
The whole world could quake.
Lord, for the strength of
Mighty wings I ache
Where the storm can blow
Towering trees can shake.

As the harsh wind blows
Plant me firmly here
Give me the courage
Help to persevere.
Wind and waves obey
Lord, Your will be done
Give me protection
Help to overcome.

When my strength returns
I face a brand new day
I give to you my morning
Unto you I pray.
I thank you Jesus
For carrying me through
I Give You praise Jesus
For all that you do.

Bridge
I know I can run
If I'm about to break
You are there Jesus
My great escape!
You are my great escape!

Jesus it is you
My Great Escape
I love You Jesus
My Great Escape!-
