Home - Downhere

In the last several months, I've enjoyed listening to a band called Downhere. Their most recent album, Ending is Beginning, has quickly become one of my all-time favorites. (Maybe I'll write more about it another time.)

On the So Much for Substitutes album, there is a hidden track after the last song called Home. The song is a great reminder for all of us as believers--we're not home yet!

We want to focus on what we can't see

But this scene is just a fading beauty

In this life, when sorrow steals our joy

We want to walk beyond our circumstances

But our feet run to our own advances

Would you be our way and lead your people on

Oh, Remind us that we have not reached home

Remind us that we have not reached home

Pull apart our good intentions

Break the walls of these dimensions

Paint a picture of our eternity

And we'll sing the songs of Heaven

Be the chorus you have chosen

We need Your grace

To echo the saints and journey on

Oh, Remind us that we have not reached home

Oh, Remind us that we have not reached home

As the angels sing Your praises

Let us not forget Your graces

Which far outweigh a world of dreams

Would you remind us that we have not reached home

Oh, Remind us that we have not reached home
