Andrew Peterson - The Chasing Song lyrics

rate me

Now and then these feet just take to wandering Now and then I prop them up at home Sometimes I think about the consequences Sometimes I don't Well, I realize that falling down ain't graceful But I thank the Lord that falling's full of grace Sometimes I take my eyes off Jesus And you know that's all it takes Well I wish that I could say that at the close of every day I was happy with the way that I'm behaving 'Cause Job, he chased and answer The wise men chased the Child Jacob chased her 14 years and he Captured Rachel's smile Moses chased the Promised Land Joseph chased a dream David, he chased God's own heart All I ever seem to chase is me Well, they say a race can only have one winner And you know you've got to pull out front to win God knows the only time I'm winning Is when I'm chasing Him Well I wish that I could say that at the close of every day I was happy with the way that I'm behaving 'Cause Samson chased a woman and he chased the Philistines I'm not quite sure what Jonah chased But I know he caught the sea Cain, he chased the harvest While Abel chased the beasts David, he chased God's own heart All I ever seem to chase is me And Jesus chased the moneymen And he chased his Father's will He chased my sin to Calvary And he caught it on that hill Saul, he chased the Christians Till his blindness made him see David, he chased God's own heart All I ever seem to chase is me
