Lead My Heart Back Home

[Verse 1 – Soft, reverent]
Lord, You found me in the valley,
Where the shadows lingered long.
Still Your mercy came to meet me,
Turned my sighing into song.
You have been my faithful Shepherd,
Every step and every mile…
And Your grace keeps gently callin’
Like a father to his child.

[Chorus – Southern Gospel warmth]
Lead my heart back home to You,
Where the living waters flow.
You’re the One my soul runs to,
You’re the peace I’ve longed to know.
When I wander, You still find me,
Never leave me on my own…
Oh, Your love keeps reachin’ for me—
Lead my heart back home.

[Verse 2 – Stronger, bluegrass movement]
You have carried me through trials,
Pulled me from the deepest night.
Set my feet upon a promise,
Filled my darkness with Your light.
Now I’m standin’ in Your freedom,
Where the chains have lost their hold…
And the story of redemption
Is the sweetest ever told.

[Chorus – Bigger harmonies]
Lead my heart back home to You,
Where the living waters flow.
You’re the One my soul runs to,
You’re the peace I’ve longed to know.
When I wander, You still find me,
Never leave me on my own…
Oh, Your love keeps reachin’ for me—
Lead my heart back home.

[Verse 3 – Full gospel/bluegrass drive]
Take this heart that’s prone to wander,
Make it steady, make it true.
Tune my spirit to Your goodness,
Let my life sing praise to You.
Every blessing, every heartbeat,
Every breath that I have known…
Let it rise in hallelujahs—
Till You lead my heart back home.

[Final Chorus – Triumphant]
Lead my heart back home to You,
Where the living waters flow.
You’re the One my soul runs to,
You’re the peace I’ve longed to know.
When I wander, You still find me,
Never leave me on my own…
Oh, Your love keeps reachin’ for me—
Lead my heart back home.
