Thank You God for Coming Back Home

**Title: “You Came Back Home”**

**Verse 1**

I was running through the night, lost in my own mind

Crying out your name, but you felt so hard to find

Breaking things around me, falling in the dark

But somewhere in the silence you were guarding my heart

I was restless like a child left alone by the door

Thinking you were gone and you would come back no more

But even in the chaos, even in the pain

You were standing there beside me through the storm and the rain

**Pre-Chorus**

Were you testing my faith, Lord, through the fire and the tears?

Through the shadows of doubt and the weight of the years?

I was wounded and shaking but my trust never died

Even in the darkness I was calling your light

**Chorus**

Thank You God for coming back home

You never left me on my own

Like a faithful hand I couldn’t see

You were always holding me

We’re together, heart and soul

Through the breaking You made me whole

And my faith kept calling Your name

Knowing You would come again

Thank You God for coming back home

**Verse 2**

I was just a young heart learning how to believe

Like a dog at the doorway waiting faithfully

Not yet understanding you would always return

But the waiting built a fire in my soul that would burn

Now I see what you meant through the trials I knew

All the nights I was lost were still leading to You

Even when I wandered far into the night

You were walking right beside me with Your patient light

**Pre-Chorus**

I was hiding in shadows thinking I was near

But Your voice broke the silence and You drew me here

Now Your light falls on me like the dawn from above

And the tears in my eyes are the warmth of Your love

**Chorus**

Thank You God for coming back home

You never left me on my own

Like a faithful hand I couldn’t see

You were always holding me

We’re together, heart and soul

Through the breaking You made me whole

And my faith kept calling Your name

Knowing You would come again

Thank You God for coming back home

**Bridge**

There’s a plan like a river pulling hearts to the sea

People think they’re running but they’re sinking to Thee

Into arms that are warmer than the world ever knew

Into love that is deeper than the sky ever grew

And like dogs when the owner finally walks through the door

All the joy starts to rise like it never did before

Every heart starts crying, every soul starts to sing

When the light of Your presence touches everything

**Final Chorus**

Thank You God for coming back home

You never left me on my own

Through the darkness You carried me

Now Your light is all I see

I may fall and I may roam

But Your mercy calls me home

And my heart will always proclaim

Thank You God for coming back home.
