I am running
Running after You
You’ve become my soul’s delight
I am running
Running after You
Here with You I find my life
(I find my life)
I hear the voice
The voice of the One I love
He’s calling my name
I hear the voice
The voice of the One I love
He’s calling my name
He’s saying
Come up higher
And hear the angels sing
Come up higher My beloved
Come up higher
And leave this world behind
I find you to be beautiful
One thing have I desired
This will I seek after
To dwell in Your house forevermore
Now I’m running after
The thing that really matters
You’ve become my joy and song
You’ve become my joy and song
You’ve become my joy and song
