The reason why I stand
The answer lies in you
You hung to make me strong
Though my praise was few
When I fall and bring your name down

But I have found in you
A heart that pleads forgiveness
Replacing all these thoughts
Of painful memories
But I know
That your response will always be

[Chorus]
I'll take you back always
And even when your fight is over now
Even when your fight is over now
I'll take you back always
And even when the pain is coming through
Even when the pain is coming through
I'll take you back

You satisfy this cry
Of what I'm looking for
And I take all I can
And lay it down
Before the throne of endless grace, now
That radiates what's true

I'm in the only place
That erases all these faults
That have overtaken me
But I know
That your response will always be

[Chorus]

I can only speak
With a grateful heart
As I'm pierced by this gift
Of your love

I will always bring an offering
I can never thank you enough

You'll take me back always
And even when my fight is over now
Even when my fight is over now
You'll take me back always
And even when my pain is coming through
Even when my pain is coming through
You'll take me back always

Even when my fight is over now
Even when my fight is over now

You'll take me back always

Even when my pain is coming through
Even when my pain is coming through

You'll take me back

    General CommentI love this song, it's so fun to play, and Jeremy almost screams at the end!!!!!!!! It makes me happy cuz he's generally softer and he found a rockier edge.

    General CommentI love this song! I think that it especially makes the point that there isn't a 'point of no return.' Even if you're coming back after you've failed, or when your test is over, God will always welcome you back. It's something that we need to be reminded sometimes.

    General CommentThis song is simply amazing.

    I'll take you back
    Always and
    Even when your fight is over now
    Even when your fight is over now
    I'll take you back
    Always and
    Even when the pain is coming through
    Even when the pain is coming through
    I'll take you back

    I've struggled with lots of things in my life, but God will always take me back.

    General CommentI literally listen to this songs five times a day minimum. We all fail in life, and I have found that God is quick to forgive and in those moments of trouble, he's kneeling with open arms ready to keep us in his tender care.
