Paroles de Hound Of Heaven

I fled Him down the nights and days
I fled Him down the path of years
I heard all about the love of the One
Who was following me
I clung to every shallow friend
The whistling mane of every wind
I feared that once I tasted that love
I could never let go
Cause those strong feet kept following the way I sped
But the love that followed overcame the fear that fled
So I ran inside the world again
To the ones who called the Hound their friend
I thought in vain that would be the best place to hide
To mother nature's breast I flew
And shouted to the sky so blue
Please hide me from this One so set on loving me
Came back a voice that sounded like the bursting sea
None will shelter you who will not shelter me
Shelter me, Shelter me
Finally, I can flee no more
I yielded for Your open door
The prize You sought for so long is finally Yours
Your dark and gloom have hounded me
For so long now that I can't see
I surrender all those things You've taken from me
Came back a voice that did not take him for your heart How little worthy of My love could anyone be
Who else could ever love you, save only Me...
