Verse 1

I chose to keep Your love at a distance
I tried instead to walk by sight
In aimless striving in faithless wandering
You watched me drink
The wells of this world dry

Chorus

I don’t want to wait any longer
To live in the embrace of the Father
You carry me with grace to the table
You welcome me back in
I find my place again

Verse 2

Never forsaken never abandoned
You always hear me when I call
I’ve squandered riches I’ve faced the famine
Your arms of love surround me
Through it all

Chorus

I don’t want to wait any longer
To live in the embrace of the Father
You carry me with grace to the table
You welcome me back in
I find my place again

Bridge

You turned the desert
Of my loneliness and anger
Into a garden of grace
A garden of grace
Through every fault and fear
You’ve always been the anchor
In the storm I was safe
In the storm I was safe

Chorus

I don’t want to wait any longer
To live in the embrace of the Father
You carry me with grace to the table
You welcome me back in
I find my place again
