When God Ran - when?

Why would God run? Is He scared from something? Is something out of His reach?

A great illustration of the one and only time when God ran:

Lyrics and chords:

C                    G/C
Almighty God, the great I am
F                 G                     C
Immovable rock,omnipotent,powerful awesome Lord
G/C                 F
Victorious Warrior, commanding King of Kings
G                         Am          F
Mighty Conqueror, and the only time
Am                       G        F/G
The only time I ever saw Him run

C                    Am
Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms
F
Held my head to His chest
G
Said "My son's come home again"
C                         Am
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
F
With forgiveness in His voice
Dm                           F/G
He said"Son, do you know I still love you?"
Am            F             G
He caught me by surprise, when God ran

C                            G/C
The day I left home I knew I'd broken His heart
D                               G
And I wondered then if things could ever be the same
C                  G/C
Then one night I remembered His love for me
F                    G
And down that dusty road ahead I could see
Am     F
It was the only time
Am                       G
It was the only time I ever saw Him run

C           Am
And then He ran to me, took me in His arms
F
Held my head to His chest
G
Said, "My son's come home again"
C                          Am
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
F
With forgiveness in His voice
Dm                       F/G
He said,"Son, do you know I still love you?"
Am            F            Am               F
He caught me by surprise and brought me to my knees
G
When God ran, I saw Him run to me.

Am       F              G
I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away
Am         F                G
But now I know He's been waiting for this day

C                Am
I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms
F
Held my head to His chest
G
And said," My son's come home again"
C                          Am
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
F                      G
With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again
C            Am
He ran to me, He took me in His arms
F
Held my head to His chest
G
Said," My son's come home again"
C                       Am
Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes
F
With forgiveness in His voice
Dm
He said, "Son"
F
He called me Son
Dm                           F/G
He said ,"Son do you know I still love you?"
C          Am
He ran to me
F                G
And then I ran to Him
C
When God ran
