Song Meaning
This song captures the raw honesty of a faith that stumbles, trips, and falls yet refuses to stay down. The opening lines acknowledge that no one promised an easy path, and the metaphor of a little toy boat tossed on a churning sea vividly portrays life's instability. Yet the chorus declares a determined resolve: even when crawling, slipping, or watching worlds collide, the singer will hit the ground running back to God. The bridge poses a poignant question—what kind of love would say 'I love you anyway' time and again—highlighting the unconditional grace that fuels this relentless return. It's a testament to persistent faith, not as a perfect performance but as a series of comebacks, each one a sprint toward the Father's open arms. The imagery of rebounding and getting back up reinforces that falling is not failure but part of the journey, and the destination is always the same: back to the One who never gives up on us.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Nobody said it would be easy
Nobody said that life's a breeze
Tossin' and turnin', oh the wind keeps churnin'
Like I'm a little toy boat out on the sea
If I'm down don't count me out
I'll slowly get back on my feet
Stumblin' and fumblin', but I keep on coming
Just as long as you're not giving up on me
When I trip, I fall and slow down to a crawl
And feel like I've got nothing left to lose
I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide
But I will
Hit the ground running back to you
There are days my head is spinning
Wishing I could hit the switch and end this ride
If it came to a stop and someone let me off I know
I would just get right back in line
When I trip, I fall and slow down to a crawl
And feel like I've got nothing left to lose
I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide
But I will
Hit the ground running back to you
What kind of love would say
I love you anyway
Oh, time and time again
When I trip, I fall and slow down to a crawl
And feel like I've got nothing left to lose
I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide
But I will
Hit the ground running back to you
I will
Hit the ground running back to you
I may slip, slide and watch our worlds collide
But I will, yes I will
Hit the ground running back to you
I hit the ground running back to you
I hit the ground, crashing down, rolling round
But I rebound, I get back up and I'll be found
Running, running back to you
I'm running back to you
Back to you
Back to you
Back to you
Running back to you
