Take Me Home
Brother Roscoe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As it lead me into the cold
On a path of no return
I wouldn't listen, wouldn't learn
And all I saw at that road's end
Only emptiness and sin
And all I sought would never last
Oh take me home
Lord, take me home
Where I'll no longer need to roam
Where I will stand before your throne
Take me home
Lord, take me home
Now I walk in light again
Days of darkness are at an end
My savior's blood has made me whole
And I've found peace within my soul
No, nevermore will I return
To that life I have spurned
For I was lost, but I am found
And to Heaven I am bound
Oh take me home
Lord, take me home
Where I'll no longer need to roam
Where I will stand before your throne
Take me home
Lord, take me home
When I have drawn my final breath
No I will not be lost to death
No more strife and no more pain
My vessel's gone, my soul remains
In a land of golden shores
I will live forever more
While in this world you must take care
So when you're called I'll see you there
Oh take me home
Lord, take me home
Where I'll no longer need to roam
Where I will stand before your throne
Take me home
Lord, take me home
Oh take me home
Lord, take me home
Where I'll no longer need to roam
Where I will stand before your throne
Take me home
Lord, take me home
Take me home
Lord, take me home
Take me home
Lord, take me home

I drifted down that lonesome road
I walked down a road of loneliness and despair
As it lead me into the cold
The road I took led me to a place of emptiness and darkness
On a path of no return
I chose a path that had no way back
I wouldn't listen, wouldn't learn
I refused to listen and learn from my mistakes
And all I saw at that road's end
At the end of that road, all I could see was sadness and sin
Only emptiness and sin
There was nothing but sadness and wrongdoing left on that road
And all I sought would never last
I realized that everything I looked for was temporary and would not endure
And my life was fading fast
My life was losing its meaning and purpose
Now I walk in light again
I now walk in the light of hope and redemption
Days of darkness are at an end
The days of despair and hopelessness are over
My savior's blood has made me whole
Through the sacrifice of my savior, I am now complete and in peace
And I've found peace within my soul
I have finally found peace and contentment within myself
No, nevermore will I return
I vowed to never go back to that place of darkness and despair
To that life I have spurned
I have rejected the life that led me to sadness and despair
For I was lost, but I am found
I was once lost, but I have now found my way
And to Heaven I am bound
I am now on my way to Heaven
When I have drawn my final breath
At the end of my life
No I will not be lost to death
I will not be lost in death because of my faith
No more strife and no more pain
There will be no more struggle and pain in the afterlife
My vessel's gone, my soul remains
Although my body will be gone, my soul will live on
In a land of golden shores
I will be in a beautiful and peaceful place
I will live forever more
I will live eternally in Heaven
While in this world you must take care
While you're still alive, take care of yourself
So when you're called I'll see you there
I hope to see you when we're both called to the afterlife
Oh take me home
I pray to be taken to Heaven
Lord, take me home
I ask God to bring me home to His loving arms
Where I'll no longer need to roam
In Heaven, there will be no need for wandering
Where I will stand before your throne
I will be in the presence of God
Take me home
Bring me to Heaven
Take me home
Guide me to Heaven
Lord, take me home
I pray to God to take me Home
Take me home
Bring me to Heaven
Lord, take me home
I pray to God to take me Home
Take me home
Guide me to Heaven
