Without Running Away by Jason Gray

I've spent some days looking for a length of rope
      Am
And a place to hang it from the end of my hope
            F                                                 C
But where I thought hope had ended I always find a little bit more
-
     C
It’s not like I'm trying to be optimistic
       Am
If the truth be told I'd rather dismiss it
       F                                            C       G
And be free of the burden of the living that hoping requires
-
   F        C
To bring my heart
   Am    G
To every day
    C                          F
And run the risk of fearlessly loving
                C
Without running away
-
C
Jesus is speaking but it's so hard to hear
     Am
When disciples with swords are cutting off ears
F                                              C   G
Broken and bleeding I'm waiting for healing to come
-
    C
But wounded's a part that I've learned to play well
           Am
Though the wound may run deeper than I know how to tell
      F                                        C
Where pain's an addiction that keeps me buried alive
              F                                      C     G
But when it's all that I know I'm afraid to leave it behind
-
    F        C
And bring my heart
   Am    G
To every day
    C                          F
And run the risk of fearlessly loving
                C
Without running away
-
   Am                  F
My heart is not lifted up
   C                   G
My eyes are not lifted up
    Am       F           C   G
But calm and quiet is my soul
       Am             F            C   G
Like a child with its mother is my soul
-
        C
After a while in the dark your eyes will adjust
       Am
In the shadows you'll find the hand you can trust
        F                                            C
And the still small voice that calls like the rising sun
G
Come
-
    F          C
And bring your heart
   Am    G
To every day
C                          F
Run the risk of fearlessly loving
                Am  G
Without running away
         Am                         F
You must run the risk of fearlessly loving
                G
Without running away
