Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Friday night lights on
But the hearts feel cold
Kids staring at the phone
Lost in the glow
Mama's working late
Daddy's already gone
Little boy saying grace
All on his own
(Chorus)
We gotta bring God back home
Back to the table
Back to the schoolyard
Back to the family
Back to our hearts
We gotta fall on our knees
Before we fall apart
We gotta bring God back home
(Verse 2)
Bring him back, bring him back
We gotta bring God back home
Bring him back, bring him back
We gotta bring God back home
Teacher walks the halls
Hands tied, head bound
Wants to speak the truth
But she's scared of the crowd
Grandma's Sunday Bible
Dust on the shelf
We're praying for a rescue
But we've shut him out ourselves
(Chorus)
We gotta bring God back home
Back to the table
Back to the schoolyard
Back to the family
Back to our hearts
We gotta fall on our knees
Before we fall apart
Apart, we gotta bring it back home
(Spoken Word/Bridge)
Oh Lord, we need You now, we gotta
Bring it back home
Bring it back home
One house at a time
One prayer at a time
Open up the door
Let His glory shine
And Jesus said,
“Let the little children come to me
And do not hinder them, for the kingdom of
Heaven belongs to such as these
Train up a child
And the way he should go
And when he is old
He will not depart from it.”
Blessed is the nation
Whose God is the Lord
(Chorus)
We gotta bring God back home
Back to the table
Back to the schoolyard
Back to the family
Back to our hearts
We gotta fall on our knees
Before we fall apart
Apart, we gotta bring it back home
Oh Lord, we need You now, we gotta
Bring it back home
One house at a time
One prayer at a time
Open up the door
Let His glory shine
