Communion
Maverick City Music
[Intro: Steffany Gretzinger]
We are returning
To the place we've always belonged
Right here with You

[Verse 1: Steffany Gretzinger]
Take me back to the garden
Lead me be back to moment I heard Your voice
Take me back to communion
Lead me back to the moment I saw Your face

[Pre-Chorus: Steffany Gretzinger]
And it was all so simple
It was easy to love
No space between us
It was easy to trust

[Chorus: Steffany Gretzinger]
'Cause You are closer, closer than my skin
And You are in the air I'm breathing in (Yes, You are)
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
Feels so good to know You are my friend
[Verse 2: Brandon Lake]
And this is the garden
Here in the place I find You close
This is communion
Here in the place I'm fully known

[Pre-Chorus: Brandon Lake]
And it was all so simple
You're so easy to love
And no space between us
You're so easy to trust

[Chorus: Brandon Lake & Steffany Gretzinger]
You are closer, closer than my skin (Yes, You are)
And You are in the air I'm breathing in
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
Feels so good to know You are my friend

[Spontaneous: Brandon Lake]
My friend, my friend, yeah
It's where I'm meant to be

[Bridge: Brandon Lake, Brandon Lake & Steffany Gretzinger]
This is where I'm meant to be (Right here)
Me in You and You in me
And I don't have to prove a thing
You've already approved of me
This is where I'm meant to be
Me in You and You in me
And I don't have to prove a thing (I don't, I don't)
You've already approved of me
'Cause this is where I'm meant to be
Me in You and You in me
(And I don't have) And I don't have to prove a thing
You've already approved of me
(This is where) This is where I'm meant to be
Me in You and You in me
And I don't have to prove a thing
You've already approved of me
[Chorus: Brandon Lake & Steffany Gretzinger]
'Cause You are closer, closer than my skin
And You are in the air I'm breathing in
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
It feels so good to know You are my friend

[Spontaneous: Steffany Gretzinger]
There's nothing like Your friendship
There's nothing like this friendship with You, with You, with You
We are returning
We are returning
To the desire of Your heart
We are returning
We are returning
We are returning
To the desire of Your heart
Yes, we are
We are returning, ohh
We are returning, we're coming back home
We are returning, ohh
We are returning
Oh, we are returning
Oh, we're coming after You
We are returning (Here's my heart, God)
We are returning
Oh, and we'll never look back
We are returning, ohhh
We are returning (Oh)
We're coming back to You
We are returning (Here's my heart, God)
We are returning
We are returning (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Here's where the dead things) 'Cause here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
(Here's where the dead things) Here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
Here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
It feels so good to know You are my friend

[Spontaneous: Brandon Lake]
Mm-mm
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I didn't know I could have a friend like You
Mm-mm, I didn't know I could have a friend like You
So good, You're so good
I didn't know I could have a friend like You
Closer than a brother, closer than a brother
I didn't know that I could have a friend like You
I didn't think that I deserved it
I didn't know I could have a friend like You
You keep blowing me away
I didn't know I could have a friend like You
Just the voices, one more time
I didn't know that I could have a friend like You

[Chorus: Brandon Lake]
'Cause You are closer, closer than my skin
And You are in the air I'm breathing in
And here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
It feels so good to know You are my friend

[Interlude]

[Verse 3: Chandler Moore]
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
O what peace we often forfeit
And O what needless pains we bear
It's all because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

[Spontaneous: Chandler Moore]
I didn't know that I could have a friend like You
I didn't know that I could have a friend like You
One who holds me close in shame
I didn't know that I could have a friend like You
One who's a better friend than I could ever be
I didn't know that I could have a friend like You

[Outro: Chandler Moore]
(Here's where) Here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again (It's coming alive now)
Here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again (I'm not numb anymore)
Here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
(Here's where) Here's where the dead things come back to living
I feel my heart beating again
(It feels so good) It feels so good to know You are my friend
