God Will Bring Us Home
The song “God Will Bring Us Home” has become the theme song of our God’s Hope ~ Our Journey capital campaign. The words and music are written by a member of Atonement Lutheran Church, Kevin Kurth. The words are published here with Kevin’s permission.
God Will Bring Us Home
Noah working on the ark one day
People laughed and turned away
But as the rain fell like tears across his face
Noah praised God for his grace
(He said)
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
It’s time to get on board
Though the sea in darkness be
We will trust our God to bring us home
As the storm waves crashed o’er the bow
Disciples thought, “We bought it now”
Then Jesus woke and calmed the waves
More victims of god’s grace
(They said)
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
I’m glad that I’m on board
Though the sea in darkness be
We will trust our God to bring us home
So let us journey on this ship of faith
For faith leads where we can’t see
Without a vision the people die
So let this be our battle cry
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
It’s time to get on board
Though the sea in darkness be
We will trust our God
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
And hold on to His Word
Though the way in darkness lay
We will trust our God to bring us home
We will trust our God to bring us home
God Will Bring Us Home
Noah working on the ark one day
People laughed and turned away
But as the rain fell like tears across his face
Noah praised God for his grace
(He said)
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
It’s time to get on board
Though the sea in darkness be
We will trust our God to bring us home
As the storm waves crashed o’er the bow
Disciples thought, “We bought it now”
Then Jesus woke and calmed the waves
More victims of god’s grace
(They said)
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
I’m glad that I’m on board
Though the sea in darkness be
We will trust our God to bring us home
So let us journey on this ship of faith
For faith leads where we can’t see
Without a vision the people die
So let this be our battle cry
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
It’s time to get on board
Though the sea in darkness be
We will trust our God
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
And hold on to His Word
Though the way in darkness lay
We will trust our God to bring us home
We will trust our God to bring us home
