This single is a rethinking of a mystical Truth that reflects the multi-faceted perspective of the Christian Mysticism and Grace that is breaking forth through as the global spiritual awakening movement called 'Deconstruction' / 'Reconstruction'.
Enjoy and renew your view!
Already Home - P-Arthism
(**Intro:**)
"Not lost... just forgot..."
(**Verse 1: The Wilderness - Striving**)
Ticking clock in a desert land
Ninety-nine safe, but still I stand
Counting steps on this shifting sand
Earning love with an empty hand
Pharisee heart, a righteous lie
Watchin' sinners passin' by
While the Shepherd lifts His eye...
To the horizon line.
(**Verse 2: The Search - Awakening**)
Silver gleam in the dusty dark
Fingers trace every shadowed mark
Lost my worth? Missed the vital spark?
Sweep the floor of this broken heart
"Metanoia!" - Not a price to pay!
Just a turnin' from the grey!
See the Light of the brand new Day!
(**Pre-Chorus:**)
Was I ever really gone?
Or just believin' I was wrong?
Heard a Whisper all along...
"YOU ARE MINE!"
(**Chorus:**)
FOUND! Like the sheep on His shoulders high!
FOUND! Like the coin 'neath the joyful cry!
FOUND! Like the son seein' Home draw nigh!
I AM FOUND! (Yeah!)
No more wanderin' in the wasteland!
Steppin' out of the "should've", "can't"!
Hear the music, join the chant!
I AM FOUND!
(**Verse 3: The Son - Remembering**)
Pigpen stench, hollow inside
Rehearsed the speech, swallowed the pride
Saw the Road where the Love can't hide
Started walkin' with nowhere left to run...
(**Verse 4: The Father - Running**)
Saw the shape on the dusty rise
Compassion blazin' in His eyes
Before the plea, before the cries
He was RUNNIN'! Tearin' down the lies!
Robes and rings, no hired hand!
Calf is slain for the homeward band!
THIS is Grace, understand?
(**Pre-Chorus:**)
Was I ever really dead?
Or just livin' in my head?
Hear the Words the Father said...
"YOU ARE MINE!"
(**Chorus:**)
FOUND! Like the sheep on His shoulders high!
FOUND! Like the coin 'neath the joyful cry!
FOUND! Like the son seein' Home draw nigh!
I AM FOUND! (Yeah!)
No more wanderin' in the wasteland!
Steppin' out of the "should've", "can't"!
Hear the music, join the chant!
I AM FOUND!
(**Bridge:**)
Not lost... just forgot!
Inheritance CANNOT be bought!
The Kingdom's HERE! The battle's fought!
His very Life... is what He brought!
Awake, O Sleeper! Rise and SEE!
The God in you... the You in Me!
No separation! We are FREE!
Living Loved... ETERNALLY!
(**Chorus:**)
FOUND! (I am His!)
FOUND! (And He is mine!)
FOUND! (No more wilderness!)
I AM FOUND!
FOUND! (In the Light!)
FOUND! (Knowin' I'm alright!)
FOUND! (Shinin' ever-bright!)
I AM FOUND!
(**Outro:**)
I am found... (Found...)
I am home... (Home...)
I am love... in motion...
My steps... my breath... my heartbeat...
"I AM HIS... AND HE IS MINE..."
"Found..."
