THE SONG

“Heart Back Home” is a heart cry for more of Jesus. In a world full of distraction, temptation, and hype, our attention is so easily dragged away from the One who matters most. The nature of a drifting heart is that we don’t always perceive it when it’s happening, but the results can be catastrophic in the end. “Heart Back Home” is therefore a prayer, asking God to reveal what’s wrong in our hearts, and placing our confidence that He will lead us back into fellowship with Him.

LYRICS

I’ve been the one
Who’s walked in Your freedom
And I know what it’s like
To be held by Your grace
But today I feel so far away from the way it used to be
Can You take me back
I wanna go back

Because I need it
And I feel it
When my heart is weak and there’s nothing else I can do

I’m calling on Your mighty name
Whoa can You hear me say
I’m slipping and I need Your grace
To bring my heart back home
I’m calling on Your mighty name
Whoa can You hear me say
I’m slipping and I need Your grace
To light the path and bring my heart back home

When my mind is divided
And I’m tossed by the waves
As each one breaks
I am drifting away
And it’s carried me so far away from where I used to be
Can You take me back
I wanna go back
​
Because I need it
And I feel it
When the hold of this world is pulling me farther from You

I’m calling on Your mighty name
Whoa can You hear me say
I’m slipping and I need Your grace
To bring my heart back home
I’m calling on Your mighty name
Whoa can You hear me say
I’m slipping and I need Your grace
To light the path and bring my heart back home

When there’s nothing
In my world that’s making sense
I am trusting
In Your faithfulness

I’m calling on Your mighty name
Whoa can You hear me say
I’m slipping and I need Your grace
To bring my heart back home
I’m calling on Your mighty name
Whoa can You hear me say
I’m slipping and I need Your grace
To light the path and bring my heart back home
I know You’ll bring me home
I know You’ll bring
You’ll bring my heart back home
