I Will Run To You
Hillsong United's song 'Your Eye Is on the Sparrow' draws from the biblical assurance that God cares for even the smallest creatures, extending that care to every believer. The lyrics express trust in God's comforting hand, mercy, and strength, while acknowledging a calling to purpose and a desire for God's glory to draw all people. The chorus emphasizes reliance on the Holy Spirit rather than human effort, and a commitment to persevere in faith until seeing God's face. The song encourages listeners to find security in God's love and grace, and to live in the light of His presence.
Your eye is on the sparrow
And Your hand, it comforts me
From the ends of the Earth to the depth of my heart
Let Your mercy and strength be seen
You call me to Your purpose
As angels understand
For Your glory, may You draw all men
As Your love and grace demand
And I will run to You
To Your words of truth
Not by might, not by power
But by the spirit of God
Yes I will run the race
'Till I see Your face
Oh let me live in the glory of Your grace
