Sometimes it feels like I'm watching from the outside Sometimes it feels like I'm breathing, but am I alive? I will keep searching for answers that aren't here to find All I know is I'm not home yet This is not where I belong Take this world and give me Jesus This is not where I belong So when the walls come falling down on me And when I'm lost in the current of a raging sea I have this blessed assurance holding me All I know is I'm not home yet This is not where I belong Take this world and give me Jesus This is not where I belong When the earth shakes I wanna be found in you When the lights fade I wanna be found in you All I know is I'm not home yet This is not where I belong Take this world and give me Jesus This is not where I belong All I know is I'm not home yet This is not where I belong Take this world and give me Jesus This is not where I belong Where I belong where I belong Where I belong where I belong
