Jonathan Andre of 365 Days of Inspiring Media gave a positive review of the song, saying "Thematically and stylistically, the song is quite possibly one of his most mellow, as we contemplate the words sung by Cody about running to the father as we are."[9] Lins Honeyman, in a favourable review at Cross Rhythms, said "this is a stirring piece which ticks all the modern worship boxes from the mid-tempo setting to the self-examining and emotional lyrics - all of which benefit from Carnes' skilled and impassioned vocal delivery."[10]
