Verse 1
I know You own my heart,
You’ve always been there for me,
You said “I’m here my child.”
We were never apart,
I knew Your hands would shelter me,
For a long while…
But now I feel so far away,
I wonder, if You’ll ever take me back again…
Chorus 1
And now I realize,
It’s not You who left me here,
Now I see, I’ve done the thing,
That I most fear,
I’ve pushed You away,
With my sin and human nature,
I pray You’ll take me back,
I’ve been away for so long,
Please take me back,
Please take me back,
Shelter me and give me strength,
So I have no lack…
Verse 2
I know You forgive,
That is why I live, today,
Because You gave me life,
In Your infinite mercy,
You came to me and said,
“I’m still here my child…”
I ran to You, with my arms wide open,
(You showed me the cross)
And You said, this is a token… of my love…
Chorus 2
And now, I realize,
How much you love me,
Why You’d love something so small,
I just can’t see,
I’m not worthy but,
You died for me anyway,
It’s beyond my understanding,
But I’m just glad I can say,
You took me back,
You took me back,
You sheltered me, and gave me strength,
So I had no lack…
Bridge
He’s a merciful God,
So faithful and true,
He’ll be right by your side,
He’ll never leave you,
And if you sin and you stray,
It’s you who pushes Him away,
But He still loves you,
He still wants to be there,
Holding you…
Chorus 3
It’s time we learn to show,
How much we love Him,
After all, He died for us,
To save us from our sin,
He washed it all away,
And He made us free,
We’re not in bondage, he broke the chains,
So that we could see,
He’ll take us back,
He’ll take us back,
He’ll shelter us, and give us strength,
So we have no lack….
He’ll take us back…..
He’ll take us back…..
I know you own my heart,
You’ve always been there for me,
You said, “I’m here my child….”
