almost home

In Your unfailing love You will lead the people You have redeemed. In Your strength You will guide them to Your holy dwelling.

- Exodus 15:13

 

Can you imagine for a moment what it must have been like for the Israelites to see the promised land but not be able to enter it?

Longing for something that we just can’t have?

Yes, I have another song reference:

Are you disappointed?

Are you desperate for help?

You know what it's like to be tired

And only a shell of yourself

Well, you start to believe

You don't have what it takes

'Cause it's all you can do

Just to move, much less finish the race

But don't forget what lies ahead

Almost home

Brother, it won't be long

Soon all your burdens will be gone

With all your strength

Sister, run wild, run free

Hold up your head, keep pressing on

We are almost home

Well, this road will be hard

But we win in the end

Simply because of Jesus in us

It's not if, but when

So take joy in the journey

Even when it feels long

Oh, find strength in each step

Knowing Heaven is cheering you on

We are almost home

Brother, it won't be long

Soon all your burdens will be gone

With all your strength

Sister, run wild, run free

Hold up your head, keep pressing on

We are almost home

Almost home

Almost home

I know that the cross has brought Heaven to us

Make no mistake, there's still more to come

When our flesh and our bone are no longer between

Where we are right now and where we're meant to be

When all that's been lost is made whole again

When these tears and this pain no longer exist

No more walking, we're running as fast as we can

Consider this our second wind

Almost home

Brother, it won't be long

Soon all your burdens will be gone

With all your strength

Sister, run wild, run free

Hold up your head, keep pressing on

We are almost home

Almost home

Almost home

I feel like we are closer than ever to finding our way to God’s house.

The ways of this world do not look favorable for life as we know it.

I am confident though, that God will lead us home.
