Story behind the song
As I was writing this song, I started to hear it with a New Orleans feel to it. I decided it had to feature musicians who embodied the spirit of New Orleans. Who better than the Fat Man and Jumbo?
Lyrics
I've been searching far and wide,
But I found nothing that satisfied
So I'm coming home to my Jesus.
I have traveled the whole world 'round.
I've been searching up and down
Trying to find what would please me.
I've had highs and I've had lows
But no matter how far I go,
I never found the balm to ease me.
No matter how far I went and
No matter how much I spent, I
Could never find what I was looking for.
All the pleasures that I found
Were just seeds sown on stony ground
So I'm coming home to my Jesus.
Lots of people made promises to me
If I needed them they would always be
Right there to be my friend forever.
But whenever the going got tough,
They couldn't be gone fast enough.
They had no taste for stormy weather.
But through the wind and rain, well,
He sheltered me time and again so
I know who I can turn to in times of need.
He's not a fair weather friend. He'll
Be with me until the end
So I'm coming home to my Jesus.
TRUMPET SOLO
Though I may fall from grace and I
Lose sight of my Savior's face, I
Know He will lead me back to where I belong.
He's my compass and He's my guide
And a light burning from deep inside
So I'm coming home to my Jesus.
If the world has let you down
And you feel that you're about to drown,
Start coming home to your Jesus.
He will welcome you back again
To a kingdom that never ends.
That's why I'm coming home to my Jesus.
