[Verse 1]
     Am    F                G            F#
I've had a burden for souls laid upon my heart
      F             F
And I love to sing (love to sing)
     E           E
This message for you
Am    F
Jesus Loves you more than
G              D
You could ever know
    F          F
And wants you (wants you)
         E       E         A    D    Am    D
Just the way you are right now

[Chorus]
                 C
I heard him say "Children don't run!"
        B        Bb      Am   Am
There's no place you can hide
C
Children don't run
    B      Bb      Am   Am
I'm always by your side
C
Children don't run
     B      Bb      Am    Am
I've got so much to share
C
Children don't run
     B       Bb     F
Your burdens I will bear
F             G
And to show I care
G                 Am    Am
My kingdom I will share

[Verse 2]
  Am  F               G             F#m
I was adrift upon the lonely sea of life
D         F             F
I thought no-one cared (no-one cared)
     E        E
If I lived or died
Am       F               G             D
Then His spirit came and gave me life anew
        F    F       E      E        Am    D  Am  D
And the only one can do the same for you

[Chorus]
                 C
I heard him say "Children don't run!"
        B        Bb      Am    Am
There's no place you can hide
C
Children don't run
    B      Bb      Am   Am
I'm always by your side
C
Children don't run
     B      Bb      Am    Am
I've got so much to share
C
Children don't run
     B      Bb     F    F
Your burden I will bear
              G
And to show I care
   G              Am   Am Am
My kingdom I will share
