From the recording The Journey Home

Lyrics

I started in the quiet garden, where everything felt brand new
Innocence and wonder faded as I wandered far from the truth
My restless heart kept searching, lost in shadows, longing for home
But mercy found me in the darkness, and grace called out my name alone

Through every night of waiting, through doubt and broken dreams
I found the dawn was faithful, some things never change, I've seen

There’s a new name written down in glory
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine
And the white-robed angels sing the story
“A sinner has come home”
For there’s a new name written down in glory
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine
With my sins forgiven, I am bound for heaven
Nevermore to roam, nevermore to roam

I walked unfamiliar roads in silence, carrying questions through the rain
Shadows fell across my footsteps, old regrets and hidden pain
But even when I wandered, His voice kept calling me
A promise burning through the darkness, A hope I could finally see

Through every fall and longing, through seasons lost and gained
His love kept lighting my journey; some things never change

There’s a new name written down in glory
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine
And the white-robed angels sing the story
“A sinner has come home”
For there’s a new name written down in glory
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine
With my sins forgiven, I am bound for heaven
Nevermore to roam, nevermore to roam

We carried our questions through the night
Hands full of memories, hearts holding tight
All of our wandering, all of our pain
Led us to mercy, and called us by name
Now every step that brought us here
Was written in grace, not wasted in fear
The past is behind us, the journey is done
Standing in the light, as daughters and sons

There’s a new name written down in glory
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine
And the white-robed angels sing the story
“A sinner has come home”
For there’s a new name written down in glory
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine
With my sins forgiven, I am bound for heaven
Nevermore to roam, nevermore to roam
