Brought Home – v5


Brought near
from a place of loss
our wilderness
our separation from God

Brought near
a new home
safe, in comfort
in the loving arms of God

Brought near
from the world
from our estrangement
new life in God

Brought near
to God’s heart
into God’s love
never to go away

Brought near
here I’ll stay
in the sheepfold
in the loving arms of God
