Strayed
(Song and Lyrics by Church of Rhythm)

When I was young I grew up in a Christian family
I wanted to please my parents
I wanted them to be so proud of me
So I took their faith and I learned their religion
And I went to a church where everyone was a Christian

I strayed far, but I am fine.

Then I went away to school and found new friends
I wanted to please them to, to be liked by them
And if they didn’t need God, then neither did I
And I got to be so busy, that he pretty much slipped my mind

Well I’ve been out of school and I am finally alone
No one to tell me what to do, but no beliefs to call my own
But in my moments of loneliness, in my desperate independence
I wondered if there was a God and if he cared where I’d been

I strayed far but I think I’ve missed you God all this time

And when I’d run till I’d run out
When being broken made me look a second time
Well now I can see, I can see clearly
That you’ve been with me all this time

I strayed far, but you have been with me God all this time
