THE WISECARVERS
“When I Run to You”
DESCRIPTION:
Earlier this year, The Wisecarvers began releasing new singles, music that was long-awaited and eagerly anticipated by fans. Now, the Tennessee-based Gospel singing family is continuing to put out new music.
Following “Like This,” and “All I Got, All I Need,” the dynamic “When I Run to You” delivers another reminder that turning to God and Jesus when life’s troubles become too much will provide deep solace.
Chase Wisecarver—who wrote this song—sings lead, while Kaila and Dustin join in on harmonies. With just a dobro to offer a counterpoint to their vocals over a simmering, sparse yet rhythmic beginning, the song lifts as the vocal and instrumental arrangement becomes more layered, underlining the song’s positive message:
“Mountains start moving and grace breaks my fall
I find strength in battle when the giant stands mighty tall
When I’m not enough my cup runs over full of love
And I’m reminded what was done for me on Calvary yeah
When I run to you, I run to you Jesus
When I run when I run when I run to you
When I can’t see through the night gonna be alright
When I run, run, run to you”
“When I wrote this song I was thinking how as Christians we know with any situation we can run to God and He will fix that situation. Still, even though we believe, we are human and often let fear chain us down so tightly that it feels impossible for us to get to Him,” says Chase. “But, all the while God is running to us with His grace and mercy. Whatever you face, He’s heading your way with everything you need!”
