Verse 1
How faintly I remember Your love song over me
But the further that I wander, the noise is deafening
Now the only thing I feel is how far You are away
This distance now between us is driving me insane

Chorus 1
Father, I miss You
My heart is ready now
To follow the sound, the sound of Your voice
That echoes inside
Father I'm desperate
I lost my way somehow
I'll follow the truth, the truth of Your love
Back into the light
Lead me back home

Verse 2
I traded trust for pleasure and diamonds for fool's gold
I made the world my treasure, but underpriced my soul
Then a whisper through the numbness, a melody of hope
That love song I remember is leading me back home

Bridge
But I never reach the gate
Before You come running to me
All the words I've rehearsed for days
Just fall at Your feet
No, I never reach the gate
Before You come running to me
All the years I threw away
In one embrace are redeemed

Chorus 2
Father I've missed You
My heart is overwhelmed
Here in Your arms, is where I belong
Forever at home
Father, I love You
Nothing could take Your place
You were the first and You'll be the last
Love of my soul
Lead me back home

Written by Cory Asbury, Ran Jackson, and Ricky Jackson

It will be two years on August 11, 2021 that I listed to the song Reckless Love after someone shared it on social media. I hear this song and that was me then. I had walked away and run from God for 25 years. When I listened to Reckless Love it broke something in me and I put it on a loop and listened to it over and over. That took me to listening to praise music and then on September 8, 2019 I stopped my truck in Holbrook, AZ in the early am and rededicated my life. I simply told God if you want me back here I am. Love the music guys it is a blessing.

I dedicate this song to all those who have lost hope, downtrodden, homeless and struggling with life's challenges. God is always ready to lead you back home to his wide open arms. You just have to be willing to cast all your burdens on him and experience divine solace in his abundant love.
