Larnelle Harris - I Want To Go lyrics

Brought up in the church against your will
Forced to sit through sermons & be suntil
Making trouble for the Sunday School teacher
Running through the pews
Just a child then
You were wide-eyed & confused
Screaming on the bus with all the youth
More concerned with dating than with truth
Too cool to join the choir, too smart to go to school
Church was boring
And the scriptures, just more rules

chorus:
But all through the yeahrs
Your eyes & ears
Saw just enough of Christ among the people here
To know that you could trust
To know that you were loved
Till there came the day
Your heart could finally say (pray)
I wanna go where You´re going, Lord
I wanna be among Your people where You´re
I can not live my life alone
I do not know how
But You´d not bring me this far to leave me now

Finally off to college for the fall
Fifty different lifestyles down one hall
Your professors question everything
Your roommates test your faith
And easy answers seem so out of place

Running from the chapel with your spouse
And making monthy payments on the house
You were living for your children
And they up & moved away
Your friends seem older
And worry fills your days

(Repeat Chorus)

You´d not bring me this far to leave me now...
