That’s where I’ve been, not where I’m going
© by Lyndon Herring

Verse 1
Embarked upon a journey somewhere
In search for truth; what sidetracked me
Was all the other options out there.
I tried one, then I tried three.

Along this path, all bright and shiny,
Were promises to live today.
Tomorrow waits, but it won’t get here;
Come along, indulge and stay.

Chorus 1
That’s where I’ve been, not where I’m going.
I found a friend, who guided me
Back to the way that’s freely open
To those who seek eternity.

Verse 2
Does pleasure be all my planning?
Should the world be all ‘bout me?
Do I believe all I’m saying?
What’s this about - integrity?

I made a way and then I got there.
It wasn’t what I thought it’d be.
I dug a hole and I kept digging,
And now I see, I’ve buried me.

Chorus 1
That’s where I’ve been, not where I’m going.
I found a friend, who guided me
Back to the way that’s freely open
To those who seek eternity.

Verse 3
Then, I cried out, “Oh, Lord, I need You;
I really made a mess of me.
Will You forgive my journey elsewhere
And take me back to walk with Thee?”

Christ said, “ That’s where you’ve been not where you’re going.
I’ve kept My Faith, watched over you.
Those things you did are all forgiven.
I want you back; I DIED for you.”

Chorus 2
That’s where I am, that’s where I’m stayin’
‘cause on my own catastrophes.
It wasn’t luck that made my changing.
It was His love that set me free.
It was His love that set me free.
It was His love that set me free.
