I fled Him down the nights and days
  I fled Him down the path of years
  I heard all about the love of the One
  Who was following me
  I clung to every shallow friend
  The whistling mane of every wind
  I feared that once I tasted that love
  I could never let go
  
  Cause those strong feet kept following the way I sped
  But the love that followed overcame the fear that fled
  
  So I ran inside the world again
  To the ones who called the Hound their friend
  I thought in vain that would be the best place to hide
  To mother nature's breast I flew
  And shouted to the sky so blue
  Please hide me from this One so set on loving me
  
  Came back a voice that sounded like the bursting sea
  None will shelter you who will not shelter me
  Shelter me, Shelter me
  
  Finally, I can flee no more
  I yielded for Your open door
  The prize You sought for so long is finally Yours
  Your dark and gloom have hounded me
  For so long now that I can't see
  I surrender all those things You've taken from me
  
  Came back a voice that did not take him for your heart
  I only wanted You to seek them in my all
  
  The dark and gloom you said
  You could no longer stand
  Was after all the shadow of My loving hand
  How little worthy of My love could anyone be
  Who else could ever love you, save only Me...
