Song title: Daddy’s Home
Artist: Travis Greene
Album: Crossover
Year: 2017
Have you ever played a song on repeat until you became afraid that the song will finish, like literarily fi..ni..sssh and stop playing on your phone? Hehehe. Well, I have.
Pause and come with me:
Imagine sleeping and waking up every day with the mind blowing thought that God is your father and he is right there for you.
If you have ever had an identity crisis like me, you will understand what I am talking about- it is only in Christ that we can find our unique identity.
In this world where men are searching for their identity and seeking for validation from many irrelevant sources, imagine receiving yours from where it matters the most- God, the father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Recently, I went through a period where I knew I wasn’t at my best, I made some poor choices and had a hard time forgiving myself. God kept tugging at my heart with the words from this song “You’re not forsaken, you belong to me and I am here for you”. And guess what! It was as though he shot out a spring of water over my parched soul and that was all I needed.
Come to think of it, what could be more refreshing than knowing that no matter what you are going through in life, God has got you back –anytime?
Travis is an exceptional singer you can easily connect with and draw closer to the Lord. His lyrics pour out from a heart that has been in touch with God. You remember Intentional, Made a way, You waited? Well, this song is another bomb!
Every song in this album is lit and it’s so difficult to pick a favourite, but “Daddy’s Home” speaks to me like no other.
So here is what you will do: you will go and yank off the entire album into your device, play them back to back on repeat and you will discover that no matter the phase of life you are in, there is a song for you. Don’t forget to thank me later. #winks
This weekend is the best time to start.
Enjoy:
“Daddy’s Home”
(feat. Hailey Kiteley)
Intro:
God reminded me of the children of Israel and how they wanted a king because everyone else had a king. But what they didn’t recognize is that they had the King of kings. And God stopped me in my tracks one day while I was praying and said “Travis quit searching for what you already have. You have the Father of fathers”. And I don’t know who you are tonight but you’ve been searching for your identity and God says that you’ll find it all in him. He says, “Listen homie I never missed a ball game”. He says, “Daughter, I was there at your graduation.” I feel a wind of restoration just blowing through and God is giving you back your identity. What you’ve been searching for, what someone stole from you, God said, “No, no, no, you belong to me daughter. You belong to me man of God. I am your identity. You can have my last name. Everything you’ve been wanting you can find in me. I am your father.”
Verse 1
You’ve been searching for your identity
Someone to give you hope and something you could believe
Search no longer, He’s waiting for you
The search is over, all you have to do is let me
Chorus:
Daddy’s home, oh
Daddy’s home, oh
Daddy’s home, oh
Daddy’s home, oh
You’ve been searching for your identity
Someone to give you hope and something you could believe
Search no longer, He’s waiting for you
The search is over, all you have to do is let me
Search no longer, He’s waiting for you
The search is over, all you have to do is let me
Daddy’s home, oh
Daddy’s home, oh
Daddy’s home, oh
Daddy’s home, oh
