Where

Verse:
Run from the day, from the light,
  we are still with You.
Run to the dark and to its night;
  it’s You we run into.

You are here, even there,
You are everywhere.
The truth of this comforts us.
Takes away our care.

Chorus:
Where can we go from You, Lord,
  or from Your Spirit?
In the heights, or in the depths,
  You are always near us.

Verse:
Death can’t take us from You, God.
In this, we can be sure of.
In Your presence we are caught;
  still within Your love.

Run to pray, to Your light,
  for we are still with You.
Fearless in this dark and night,
  it’s You we’ll run into.

Repeat Chorus

Author notes

"Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.
If I say, 'Surely the darkness shall fall on me,'
Even the night shall be light about me;
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You."--Psalm 139:7-12


"Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."--Romans 8:37-39
