I’m Going Home (lyrics and music by David Dickinson)
Intro… “Oh yeah, I’m going home” (x2).
Verse 1
Mountains, ocean, streams, and trees. Rainbow trout and the honey bees
I can smell my childhood in the breeze, I’m almost home.
Country, city, and in between. I think you know just what I mean
It’s been so long since I’ve seen or thought about home
Chorus
Oh I wanna go home. Where ya never ever feel alone
Oh the sun won’t set in the great Northwest ‘til I’m home
Time to head on home. To the place I call my own
I’ll be doing just fine when I cross that line and I’m home.
(Oh yeah, I’m going home x2)
Verse 2
I’m thinking down home country casserole. You gotta cook it nice and slow.
I only got 3 miles to go ‘till I’m home.
Where the Walla Walla Sweets they grow so nice and tasty. Where the dog-days of summer get ya feeling lazy
Salmon on the grill, Red Hook with a chill, then I’m home
Chorus
Bridge
So many places that call my name
They’ve all got somethin’ but they’re not the same “ No No”
One thing’s on my mind when it starts to roam
I’m day dreamin’ ‘bout home (wanna head on home!)
Chorus (2x)
Yeah I’m going home. Oh yeah I’m going home…..I’m going home (time to head on home)

Running After Me (music and lyrics by David Dickinson)
Verse 1
I had enough, it’s time to let me be, so I said
I’m leaving tonight.
There ain’t no talkin’ me off this ledge
(alternatively.... "There's no denying, I'm on the edge)
I’m gonna finally take my flight
(alternatively.... "I'm sick and tired of asking why")
Got my whole life in the bag I packed
I didn’t even think twice
I walked out that door and started down that road
Towards what I thought would be paradise
Chorus
(But) He’s running after me, He’s running after me
That’s the love of my father, He’s running after me
Verse 2
Years flew by, I was living the lie
But then I hit the wall
My friends were all gone, fame a flash in the pan
Could not believe I’d lost it all
Then the darkness set in
Livin’ life in the pig pen
I felt a piece of my soul die
Then I cried out why, oh why?
Chorus
Verse 3
One day my eyes were opened, and I said
I want to go home.
All I know is it’s been so long
and I feel so alone.
So I started walking down that dusty road
And then I said “No, that can’t be”
Off in the distance, I saw my father
And He was running after me.
Chorus (2x)

Pick Your Path

V1
Crooked road…..You can take it to the left or right
One way looks wide, while the other seems narrow and tight
When the end is near and time’s almost out, it’s either lost forever or a victory shout.
One path will give you new life. Steer clear of the other one, ‘cause it will cut you like a knife!
Pre-Chorus
You can shake your fist at the sky
But the better way will let you shake loose from those lies.
Chorus
It’s time to pick your path, so watch which way you choose
Pick wrong and there’s eternity to lose.
The cross divides that windy road in two.
Time to pick your path, it’s time to choose.
V2
Dirty rags, they tie you up and give you no escape
Walls closing in, but it’s never, it’s never too late.
Oh, you can be wrapped in mercy, and it’s not about whether you’re worthy.
It’s about your choice when you break. Let the Lord lead you home, ‘cause He’s redeemed your fate.
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Bridge
Can’t see which way to go, its dark inside
Many voices leading you astray.
A new voice call out your name, sure doesn’t sound the same (it says)
“Let me show you the way”
Chorus

Verse 1
I saw you walk through the door. It brightened my day.
Storm clouds were rolling in but they’ve gone away.
I wanna chance to love you right. Show me the way
Those mirrors to your soul, they’re on full display
Chorus
Your eyes, they pull me close and tight
No more need to fight. My world’s gone black to white
Your eyes, beautiful and bright,
They help restore my sight, they say “it’ll be alright” (your eyes)
Verse 2
Time with you stands still. Moments stretch on.
I’ll stay as long as you want. Deep through the night until dawn.
Your look opens me wide. Feels so right, can’t be wrong.
When you asked me to go away with you, oh I was already gone!
Chorus
Bridge
Come close to me, and you’ll feel my heart pound
Oh please call my name, it’s such a sweet sound
This must be a dream, ‘cause I’m ten feet above the ground
Sure feels like heaven comes down whenever you’re around……
Chorus (1x, then work through chorus chords once more with limited “Your eyes” vocals)
