Ruben Studdard - Running Back To You Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
How can you forgive me
when I've often gone astray
how can You think of me
when I do things my way
Turning my back from You
the One who loved me first
having my own desires
renewing worldly thirst
[Verse 2:]
You told me You loved me
and I should make up my mind
You tell me come back now
But I keep wasting time
Feeling so very weak
You say I can be strong
I feel I've gone too far
You tell me to come home
You love me still
and I know this is real.
[Chorus:]
And I am running back to You
I see You're standing there for me
Your arms are open wide
and I don't have to cry no more
You're standing there for me
and I am running back to You
Why did I go away
When I know I am no good
when I'm on my own
[Verse 3:]
You told me you could keep me
but I've turned it away
I've failed you so much now
I don't know what to say
Using the same excuse
That I am just a man
You tell me You've been there
and show your nailed, scarred hands
So I can see
Now I know I am free
[Chorus:]
And I am running back to You
I see You're standing there for me
Your arms are open wide
and I don't have to cry no more
You're standing there for me
and I am running back to You
Why did I go away
When I know I am no good
[Bridge:]
I have taken advantage of Your love & grace
Forgive me Lord and take me home
Take me home
[Tag:]
I'm running to you Jesus
Please take me home
See, I've been in this wrong way too long
and I can't do right anymore
I'm tired of pain
and I don't like fear
but Lord I want to be more sincere
I never should have left Your side
return me to Your guiding light
You're standing there for me
and I'm running back to you

Ruben Studdard Running Back To You Comments
THE QUESTIONS YOU ASK...I CAN'T TELL YOU WHY..BUT TO KNOW YOU ARE LOVED SO STRONGLY OPEN ARMS WOULD BE MY REPLY..
STANDING WAITING WITH ARMS OUTSTRETCHED ,TO LET YOU KNOW YOU WEREN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO MESSED UP,ON THAT YOU CAN PLACE A BET.THINGS DONE THINGS SAID TO THE RIM IT HAS FILLED MY CUP..
BUT ITS NOT THE WORST THAT IT COULD GET.
TO HAVE THE STRENGTH TO SAY ITS WORTH IT AND FROM THERE WE CAN BEGIN TO REBUILD..
JUST LIKE SCARE CROW IN THE WIZZARD OF OZ..PIECES ALL OVER THE FIELD..
GATHERED AND PUT BACK TOGETHER STRONGER THAN BEFORE...LOVE MAY BE ALL WE NEED BUT WEVE GOT SO MUCH MORE.
WE'VE TRULY GOT SOMETHING IN COMMON... UNBREAKABLE AS YOU AND I CAN SEE...
LOVE IS NOT ABOUT APPLYING CHAINS ...ITS NOT BONDAGE AND TOGETHER AS ONE ( FREE IS UNITY)
U- N- I (YOU AND I )
WE ARE ONE....WHEN YOU CRY I CRY...WHEN YOU HURT I FEEL YOUR PAIN...WHEN IT SEEMS IM LIKE GLASS OR HARD TO GET THROUGH...
ITS THE SAME MATERIAL PROTECTING MY HEART THAT SPREADS OUT TO SHIELD THE RAIN FROM YOU.

Good song and how dare someone say Heather was better than him and commission when she just made her on version but Fred Hammond version is original
song conjured last night starter to sing it what now 😇minus -the Jesus Christ stuff don't separate within religion just know there is a Real Heru
love his voice.....
the bassist is a killer!!
Running Back To You and Shout To The Lord are my two favorite songs.
When I first heard Commision sing this I was floored, This one is anther great version Ruben made his own. And still has the feels...
and I love his voice but this isn't an ordinary song this is an original
mariah mitchell
+Renato Swan yea
I still like his version but this is a song you can play with regardless of whom you are
Why do people like the letter J so much?
The letter T is the best.

sati thgin white o
the baby girl sweet people pain tatiyna you love
Ummm. What about Jalen... Or is it J. alen
Also Stands for Jesus, Jubilee, Joy, and Justice
This is the best version of this song this version is so much better than Heather Headley 's.
the original people that I know of is the Rance Allen group today NO one can top them
+mariah mitchell the group's name is Commission
Jalen Walker Look up Commisioned , Their version is amazing, I think they are the original artist
this song makes me cry in a good way
I LOVE RUBEN. HE SUNG THIS SONG.
love this song <3
The lyrics is so great, this is one of those songs that we need more of.
@Duncan Malgas Amen to that
i'm trying to find a version of this i heard the radio. Anyone have links to all the possible renditions?
@Alyssa M The version you may have heard is probably by Commissioned. Search it on YouTube it's on here.
The truth
Love this song
Something about this is just weak! Sorry Ruben
good stuff right guys ?
Commissioned sings original version :))))
I AM RUNNING TO YOU JESUS CHRIST HE WILL TAKE ME UP TO HEAVEN
Heather Headley is better then them both at singing this song.
Sorry but I don't think so she yelled that song. Singing a song is like telling a story thats what Rueben did.
Does anyone know who originally sung this?
Also, I am trying to find an older song, I think it was called "Sisters in the Lord", that just could be the chorus, any help would be great! Thank you!
being a gospel musician i love originals but Leandria Johnson has the best rendition of this song I've ever heard, she is vocally blessed.
Ruben killed it! That man can sing!
Commissioned made this song on their 1986 album "go tell somebody"
Many artist have done remakes of the song over the years...
SING RUBE!!!!
i love this song it brings me to tears,it reminds me of my brother who recently passed away.R.I.P Barsheen
lol! That's what I was saying.. and I'm one of her biggest fans!!
you got that right!
Dang.. I didn't even know Ruben did this song..lol! I'm all late!
lol! So did Commissioned when it first came out.
Sorry I prefer Ruben. There is something about have a smooth soothing sound over the yelling and over the top screaming!! But then that's why we have our own opinions. Go Ruben!!
Thank you Jesus!!!
@Foxxybabyj30 I hear you but u gtta remember that she did it live, this is recorded. So it would sound better
I love this song .I grew up listening to the commissioned version.I'm doing a praise dance to this song ill be posted check it out :-)
This part always makes me cry because thats always the same excuse. Its really hard to explain though 2:22
the original fred hammond version is the truth
