[Verse 1]
I’ve been runnin’ down roads with no way home
Carried burdens that weren’t mine alone
Tried to fight my battles with my own two hands
But I was never meant to walk without Your plan
(Mmm… Lord, I need You now… I need You now…)
Felt the weight of the world pressin’ on my chest
Tried to stand up strong but I had nothin’ left
Then I heard a whisper callin’ out my name
It wasn’t over—You still held my place
(Ohhh… You never let me go… You never let me go…)
⸻
[Chorus]
Bring me back where the mercy flows
Where the weary rest, where the lost get hope
I was gone too long, but You still stayed
Lord, You never closed the door, so I’m on my way
(Ohhh… I’m on my way… back to Your grace… back to Your grace…)
⸻
[Verse 2]
I remember every tear that my mama cried
Prayin’ late at night, sayin’, “Lord, be by his side”
She knew You’d catch me before I hit the ground
Even when I strayed, You never took Your arms down…….
(Mmm… You covered me, even when I couldn’t see…)
I don’t deserve this love, I don’t deserve this grace
But You still call me Yours, You never look away
Through the darkest nights, through the longest storms
You remind me who I am—I’m never too far gone….
(Ohhh… I’m never too far gone… You still call me Yours…)
⸻
[Chorus]
Bring me back where the mercy flows
Where the weary rest, where the lost get hope
I was gone too long, but You still stayed
Lord, You never closed the door, so I’m on my way
(Ohhh… I’m on my way… I’m on my way… back to Your grace… back to Your grace…)
⸻
Bridge (Soft, intimate build-up, choir humming in the background.)
I laid it down at the altar, let the chains fall off
I don’t carry my past, it was paid at the cross
All the shame, all the hurt, all the times I ran
They don’t hold me anymore—I’m in Your hands
(Ohhh… I’m in Your hands… I’m in Your hands… You carried me all along…)
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Bring me back where the mercy flows
Where the weary rest, where the lost get hope
I was gone too long, but You still stayed
Lord, You never closed the door, so I’m on my way……………….
(Ohhh… I’m home now… I’m home now… Thank You, Jesus… Thank You, Jesus…)
⸻
[Outro]
(Mmm… You never left me… You never left me… and I’ll never leave again…)
