Sometimes the desire to be close to God is best expressed in simple words. “TAKE ME HOME,” by gio., Dell Mac and Jon Keith, brings that longing into a contemporary Christian setting, with themes of faith, love and a desire for God at the centre of its message. The song carries the feeling of someone looking beyond the distractions of life and turning their attention back toward the One they truly want to be near.
With its hip-hop-influenced sound and collaborative energy, “TAKE ME HOME” fits naturally into gio.’s modern approach to Christian music. Dell Mac and Jon Keith add their voices to a song that speaks about spiritual desire without losing its contemporary character. As part of PROMISE LAND, it adds another expression of faith to the project, reminding listeners that the journey with God is also about knowing where the heart ultimately wants to belong.
Need a place to drown out all the noise
Somewhere to be still, just like your voice
Feels like I've been running low on joy
Doin' anything to try to fill the void
It's no surprise I got it wrong
I'm getting tired, it goes on and on
I really hope I didn't wait too long
Need a place to drown out all the noise
Somewhere to be still, just like your voice
Feels like I've been running low on joy
Doin' anything to try to fill the void
It's no surprise I got it wrong
I'm getting tired, it goes on and on
I really hope I didn't wait too long
Lo and behold, it's not enough
Give me the world right now, I'd give it up
'Cause if I had it all
One thing I desire
Is just to inquire with you face-to-face
As you're taking me higher
My burdens get lighter, I'll proclaim your name
Right here, in love, what's fear?
No quеstion, I'm all in
I'm done being modest
You got what I need, and want
I see, thе future is calling, from now 'til my coffin
It'll always be (you)
Come and take me home
Come and take me home
Come and take me (home)
Come and take me home
Come and take me home
Come and take me-
It's safe to say I tried
I can't believe that lie
I found favor in your eyes
I'm so glad I found the light
I gotta few regrets
Couple things I wish I could undo
And I don't know what's next
But right now, I'm reaching out for you
You don't gotta be understood
Know you're working for good
Never seen me a love like that
Even way before I begun, you had said, "It was done"
Get lost, I'ma run right back
Grace all on me (grace all on me)
Give me faith running on E (give me faith running on E)
Yeah, your face all I need (yeah, your face all I need)
'Cause if I had it all
One thing I desire
Is just to inquire with you face-to-face
As you're taking me higher
My burdens get lighter, I'll proclaim your name
Right here, in love, what's fear?
No question, I'm all in
I'm done being modest
You got what I need, and want
I see, the future is calling, from now 'til my coffin
It'll always be (you)
Come and take me home
Come and take me home
Come and take me (home)
Come and take me home
Come and take me home
Come and take me-
