As the choirs sing, “pass me not oh gentle savior” Something stabbed me like a sword He was calling, “walk with me” But I couldn’t walk, I had to run to meet my Lord
I couldn’t walk, I had to run to meet my Lord He’s been patiently waiting at my door Jesus wanted me free from sin The Devil in me wouldn’t let him in But I finally couldn’t walk, I had to run to meet my Lord
As the choirs sing, “Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling” I was crying tears of joy Then my savior smiled on me Now my heart is singing singing singing for my Lord
I couldn’t walk, I had to run to meet my Lord He’s been patiently waiting at my door Jesus wanted me free from sin The Devil in me wouldn’t let him in But I finally couldn’t walk, I had to run to meet my Lord
Praise God, I couldn’t walk, I had to run to meet my Lord
