A song about how everyone seems to be running 90 miles an hour, but going nowhere. Looking at their uptight faces and blank stares kind of makes you wonder; is this really what it's all about? (Lead guitar - James Griffiths)
Let's just call it a "Cyber Ministry"!!!!
Story behind the song
If you look around and watch the different people running from Point A to Point B with anxious looks on their faces, it makes you wonder what they're after. Is it success, is it the next promotion, is it to meet a deadline..............or are they basically searching for peace and fulfillment. I see so many looking to the things of the world to bring them satisfaction and joy, and it's all good for a temporary high, but ultimately you'll come crashing down. There is peace and joy available 24-7, even in your darkest hour; it's in Christ Jesus. I can tell you from experience; I've been on the other side.......and it was hell. My greatest desire and most intense prayer is that I can be a part in leading some of those who are searching for this joy into the light, the peace that passes ALL understanding; a new and everlasting life in Christ.

LOST AND RUNNING
© 2007 Duane Rod
Lost and running with a blank stare
Running in circles, going nowhere
Searching for truth, looking for meaning
Just looking for something they can believe in
Everywhere we look we see their faces
Eyes without hope, just empty spaces
Lost and running, down the wide road
With their burden of sin, a heavy load
CHORUS
Help us Lord…………to come together as one
To be the beacon that guides them home
Make us a light………….that chases away
The darkness of night and shows the way
Lost and running, looking for home
Lost and lonely, feeling alone
Running to the devil and winning the race
Not knowing mercy, unaware of grace
Lost and running without reason
Going through life, season to season
Living to please their own desire
Headed for forever in the devil’s fire
