Analysis of On Your Own



If you’re running far from home
I’ll come running until your found
Your tears maybe falling to the ground
And it feels like you’re on your own

You’ve fell down many times before
Clouds are rolling
Rain is falling down
They say Jesus is not that far down the road
Yet you still feel on your own

Christ was born to save us all
Even if you feel left all alone
Just keep running to the throne
And you’ll get there all on your own
