Back Where We Belong
Where have all the lovers gone?
They who love the souls of men
In a land obsessed with heroes now
Will your hero be your friend?
We rarely leave the comfort of
The pious Christian right
Can't let them see the messy truth
Instead, these pretty little lies
Take us back
Lord, remind us who we are
Hear our cry, revive us
Take us back
To the foot of that old cross
Here we are once again
Back where we belong
Do we read God's Word for ourselves?
Or is the preacher who we trust?
When the lost ask us what we believe
Can we speak the truth with love?
When did our conviction run
Away and hide in fear?
We bow our heads but not to God
We say Please, entertain us here
Take us back
Lord, remind us who we are
Hear our cry, Revive us
Take us back
To the foot of that old cross
Here we are once again
Back where we belong
Take us back
Let us be a lighthouse on a hill
Reaching out to all the world
Help us to love the souls of men
So they may know You
Let them hear the song of mercy and see
It's the grace of God that brings them to their knees
Take us back
Lord, remind us who we are
Hear our cry, Revive us
Take us back
To the foot of that old cross
Here we are once again
Back where we belong
Take us back
We fall down on our knees
With a song of mercy
So they see You, Jesus
To love the lost, ooo Jesus
Shine Your light on the world Jesus
Give us joy and peace and love
Take us back
They who love the souls of men
In a land obsessed with heroes now
Will your hero be your friend?
We rarely leave the comfort of
The pious Christian right
Can't let them see the messy truth
Instead, these pretty little lies
Take us back
Lord, remind us who we are
Hear our cry, revive us
Take us back
To the foot of that old cross
Here we are once again
Back where we belong
Do we read God's Word for ourselves?
Or is the preacher who we trust?
When the lost ask us what we believe
Can we speak the truth with love?
When did our conviction run
Away and hide in fear?
We bow our heads but not to God
We say Please, entertain us here
Take us back
Lord, remind us who we are
Hear our cry, Revive us
Take us back
To the foot of that old cross
Here we are once again
Back where we belong
Take us back
Let us be a lighthouse on a hill
Reaching out to all the world
Help us to love the souls of men
So they may know You
Let them hear the song of mercy and see
It's the grace of God that brings them to their knees
Take us back
Lord, remind us who we are
Hear our cry, Revive us
Take us back
To the foot of that old cross
Here we are once again
Back where we belong
Take us back
We fall down on our knees
With a song of mercy
So they see You, Jesus
To love the lost, ooo Jesus
Shine Your light on the world Jesus
Give us joy and peace and love
Take us back
