Long Way Home

[Chorus]
I've been taking the long way home
When you wanted to be alone
Somehow, some way
There's so much further for me to go
Am I giving you all I have?

[Verse 1]
Jesus, take me to that place
Where I first heard
Of your love and saving grace
Your perfect word

But for so long I've been distracted
And I acted like I knew
All it took to be like you
I thought I knew

[Chorus]
I've been taking the long way home
When you wanted to be alone
Somehow, some way
There's so much further for me to go
Am I giving you all I have?
Giving you all I have

[Verse 2]
Why do I settle for my best
When you have so much more
I haven't seen, I haven't heard
What you have in store

Like the deer who longs for water
My soul longs after you
Still there's so much I could do

[Chorus]
I've been taking the long way home
When you wanted to be alone
Somehow, some way
There's so much further for me to go
Am I giving you all I have?
Giving you all I have

[Chorus]
I've been taking the long way home
When you wanted to be alone
Somehow, some way
There's so much further for me to go
Am I giving you all I have?
Giving you all I have

[Outro]
I've been taking the long way home
When you wanted to be alone
Somehow, some way
