Returning Lyrics

Famine had gripped my heart

And it sent me wandering down the road

It was chaos from the start

But I thought I knew best where to go

Everything I dreamed

I thought was in my grasp

But it took over me

Desire had taken hold

And it took me farther than I planned

My sin had called my name

But soon I gave it heart and hand

Now that it's too late

I'm sure I've sealed my fate

It's taken over me

My Redeemer, He is coming

With a sword in His hand

My Savior, He is running

To the prodigal again

Where He goes, I'll go

And where He stays, I'll stay

Please take over me

I'm returning to the place of blessing

I am falling on my knees again

Jesus met me in the darkest places

So I'll return to you

The highest praises

Guilt just wouldn't let go

And it tried to trip me up with lies

But the Master wanted me more

And I found favor in His eyes

No, not even death

Can separate us now

Jesus, take over me

My Redeemer, He is coming

With a sword in His hand

My Savior, He is running

To the prodigal again

Where He goes, I'll go

And where He stays, I'll stay

Please take over me

I'm returning to the place of blessing

I am falling on my knees again

Jesus met me in the darkest places

So I'll return to you

The highest praises

Oh, the highest praises

To you and you alone

Oh, highest praises to Him

He is my Redeemer

There is no one else

No one else has ever chosen me like you

He's taken my iniquity

And covered all my shame

No one else has ever chosen me like you

He is my Redeemer

There is no one else

No one else has ever chosen me like you

The blood has made me family

And the cross has called me home

No one else has ever chosen me like you

I'm returning to the place of blessing

I am falling on my knees again

Jesus met me in the darkest places

So I'll return to you

The highest praises
