Midnight
Staring at the bills and rubbing
Red eyes
Ain’t adding up to nothing but some hard times
He’s feeling like a failure in life
Head down
Part of him is tempted just to
Skip town
But deep inside he knows enough to cry out
God, I’m tired of fighting this fight
I’m running low on faith
But I won’t run away
Tonight I’m gonna fix my eyes
On the only Hope who satisfies my heart
You are the One I’m running to
Everything that’s good and right and true
Jesus, I’m coming after who
You are, you are
The One I’m running to
Late shift she’s working hard providing for her three kids
She hasn’t seen her husband ’cause their stretched thin
Nobody told her it would be this hard
There’s no end in sight, but she says no compromise
Tonight I’m gonna fix my eyes
On the only Hope who satisfies my heart
You are the One I’m running to
Everything that’s good and right and true
Jesus, I’m coming after who
You are, you are the One I’m running to
So much I don’t understand
In the middle of this circumstance
But I know my life is in Your Hands
Tonight I’m gonna fix my eyes
On the only Hope who satisfies, my heart
You are the One
Everything that’s good and right and true
Jesus, I’m coming after who You are, you are
The One I’m running to (the One I’m running to)
The One I’m running to
I’m coming after you
