Come Home

Lyrics

Verse 1

Heard a question asked in solemn tone "Are you saved?" it echoed, not alone Felt like words from a distant, sacred text But a deeper longing stirred within my breast Is it just a promise for when life is through? Or a present truth, for me and for you?

Chorus

More than a future, more than a distant shore Salvation's a welcome, knocking at my door God reaching out, saying "Come back to Me" My spirit's true home, where I'm finally free From the brokenness that held my heart so long In His loving presence, is where I belong

Verse 2

We were made for closeness, meant to know His face But sin built a wall, a lonely, empty space Jesus came bridging, every chasm wide To bring us back closely, to His open side Not just escaping judgment, not just a final flight But a loving restoration, stepping into light

Chorus

More than a future, more than a distant shore Salvation's a welcome, knocking at my door God reaching out, saying "Come back to Me" My spirit's true home, where I'm finally free From the brokenness that held my heart so long In His loving presence, is where I belong

Bridge

It's personal, intimate, more than I conceived A relationship offered, freely received His grace inviting, calling my name Extinguishing the distance, and the guilt, and the shame

Final Chorus

More than a future, more than a distant shore Salvation's a welcome, knocking at my door God reaching out, saying "Come back to Me" My spirit's true home, where I'm finally free From the brokenness that held my heart so long In His loving presence, is where I belong

Outro

Oh, He says, "Come home" "Come home, to Me"
