Unrestrained
You cannot be contained
You tore down the walls I’ve made
Oh, what love I’ve found
Never tamed
It’s something I can’t explain
It’s rushing inside my veins
Oh, what love I’ve found
And it breaks through the dark and it’s never gonna stop
It keeps coming, coming, coming
I asked for a touch and You wrecked me with love
I asked for a drink and You poured out a flood
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
I asked for a way, You tossed mountains aside
I asked for a spark and You gave me a fire
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
Now I’m free
Jesus, You rescued me
I’ve tasted and I have seen
Oh, what love I’ve found
And it breaks through the dark and it’s never gonna stop
It keeps coming, coming, coming
I asked for a touch and You wrecked me with love
I asked for a drink and You poured out a flood
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
I asked for a way, You tossed mountains aside
I asked for a spark and You gave me a fire
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
There’s no way to thank You but I love to try to
So I’ll keep on singing at the top of my lungs
I could never repay You but I love to praise You
So I’ll keep on shouting at the top of my lungs
There’s no way to thank You but I love to try to
So I’ll keep on singing at the top of my lungs
I could never repay You but I love to praise You
So I’ll keep on shouting out
I asked for a touch and You wrecked me with love
I asked for a drink and You poured out a flood
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
I asked for a way, You tossed mountains aside
I asked for a spark and You gave me a fire
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
Running wild, Your love runs wild for me
