Never Lost

"Never Lost" is a song about the unbreakable bond between humanity and the divine-a love so vast and patient that it allows us to wander without ever losing us. Inspired by the parable of the Prodigal Son and the idea that the Kingdom of God is within us, this song captures the paradox of feeling lost while never being truly separate from God's presence.
The lyrics explore the freedom we have to turn away, question, and seek our own path, all while God remains constant, never keeping score or holding our distance against us. The moment we so much as glance back, it takes less than a breath for God to be right beside us-not because He was far away, but because He never left.
Symbolically, the song uses imagery of roads, open doors, and whispers in the wind to illustrate our wandering. It also contrasts light and shadow, movement and stillness, to show how we create the illusion of separation when we are always within divine love in reality.
This song is meant to comfort and assure those who feel distant from God, reminding them that love does not force itself-it simply waits, unshaken, ready the moment we turn our hearts toward home.
Lyrics
Verse 1
I ran through the valleys, I chased down the night
Calling for answers in echoes of light
Thought if I wandered, I’d find something new
But every road just led me back to You
Pre-Chorus
You never held tighter, You never pulled back
You waited in silence, no fear, no lack
Chorus
I was never lost, never out of Your hands
Not a step too far for love that understands
In a breath, in a blink, in the sound of my cry
You are here-You were never goodbye
Verse 2
You let me go searching, You gave me the space
To wrestle with heaven, to weep in Your grace
Love never forces, it waits as I choose
And even when I turn, You hold me through
Pre-Chorus
You don’t count the distance, don’t measure the pain
You stand in the open, calling my name
Chorus
I was never lost, never out of Your hands
Not a step too far for love that withstands
In a breath, in a blink, in the sound of my cry
You are here-You were never goodbye
Verse 3
No wall is too strong, no doubt is too deep
Your love is a river, it carries, it keeps
Even when silence felt colder than stone
I turn and I see-I was never alone
Bridge
No shadow too heavy, no night is too long
Your love is the melody singing me home
The kingdom within, it never departs
Not locked in the sky, but here in my heart
Chorus
I was never lost, never out of Your hands
Not a step too far for love that withstands
In a breath, in a blink, in the sound of my cry
You are here-You were never goodbye!
Outro
So I’ll rest in the knowing, I’ll stand in Your light
No more chasing the distance that was never mine
