Bring You Home


You never know what life will throw at you, so I wanted to write a song about finding confidence that you can always find your way back God no matter what unexpectedly unveils in life. You can take assurance that He is there for you. The 29th chapter of Jeremiah has some great faith statements. One of which is "And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:13) 

"I’ve never found the road to desperation"
No one actively searches for a way to be hopeless. Hopelessness is a symptom of depression and it sometimes just shows up. Outside of situational depression, where you know what is getting you down because of a life event that occurred, many times you don't know what is causing you to have feelings of hopelessness. Sometimes you find yourself on a given road you did not intend to be on or know how you got there but you are there. It's part of the journey of life. You may feel hopeless and not know how you got to where you are, but know that you can always call on God who loves you and if you search for Him with all your heart you will find Him every time.

"There was trouble in the air"
Even though the disciples set out to go to back to Capernaum across the sea, they were met with unforeseen circumstances. In the middle of the storm Christ was there. (Matthew 14:22-33) God is there for you in your storm, ready to be the one way to bring you back to Him. Peter, in the scriptures, was willing to step out and learn how to trust Christ. Those first few focused steps enabled him to do the impossible. Even through the storm you can find confidence that no matter what unexpectedly shows up in life, you can find your way back home to His perfect plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11).

This song hopefully at least an inspiration to fight against negativity and a reminder that God is there for you, no matter what you get caught up in from beginning to end in the journey of life.



Lyrics:
Well I’ve never found the road to desperation
and I’m not about to drown in my sorrow
I’d settle for a little bit of wonder
If there’s enough in life to go around

I’m not looking for some other kind of hero
And I’m not about to let this fire down
Well there’s two ways to look at the future
But only one way that takes you there

I don’t know ya I know know
About all the things to get caught up in the middle
I don’t know ya I know know
God’s love will bring you home on home
His love will bring you home

We set sail for the shore of Capernaum
But there was trouble in the air
We learned how to walk on the waters
And that there’s one way to take you home

I don’t know ya I know know
About all the things to get caught up in the middle
I don’t know ya I know know
God’s love will bring you home on home
His love will bring you home

I’m staring at a stone in the courtyard
Says 10 4 for now I’m on the other side
Well he sure lived his life for Jesus
And I know he’d be here singing with me

I don’t know ya I know know
About all the things to get caught up in the middle
I don’t know ya I know know
God’s love will bring you home on home
His love will bring you home
