Where I Began

The grass is greener on the other side
So I tried to snatch myself from Your hand
Caught a boat to anywhere but Nineveh
And, well, you know, I got spit back on dry landGive me purity and give me confidence
But oh no, not yet
Like a coin hiding in the corner trying not to be swept
And I was trying not to be sweptKicking against these goals, sure did cut up my feet
And didn't Your hands get bloody
As You washed them clean
And You washed themHere I am again back where I began
Try as I may I can't get away from You
And all these dusty roads that lead me to roam
Bring me back home
Here I am again back where I beganSo you have yourself your ninety-nine
Is that enough for You?
Still You followed me into the shadowed valley
Carried me on Your shoulders tooI've done the work of Sisyphus
Thinking that I could get over this hill
But the one thing I can't get over now
Is the force of Your willHere I am again back where I began
And try as I may I can't get away from You
And all these dusty roads that lead me to roam
Bring me back home
Here I am again back where I beganHere I am again back where I began
Try as I may I can't get away from You
And all these dusty roads that lead me to roam
Bring me back home
Here I am again back where I beganWhere I began
Where I began
Where I began
