Chronicles Of Narnia Prince Caspian Movie
This Is Home
I've got my memories
They're always
Inside of me
But I can't go back
Back to how it was
I believe now
I've seen too much
But I can't go back
Back to how it was
Created for a place
I've never known
Chorus:
This is home
Now I'm finally
Where I belong
Where I belong
Yeah, this is home
I've been searching
For a place of my own
Now I've found it
Maybe this is home
Yeah, this is home
Belief over misery
I've seen the enemy
And I won't go back
Back to how it was
And I got my heart
Set on
What happens next
I got my eyes wide
It's not over yet
We are miracles
And we're not alone
(Chorus)
And now after all
My searching
After all my questions
I'm gonna call it home
I got a brand new mindset
I can finally see
The sunset
I'm gonna call it home
(Chorus)
Now I know
Yeah, this is home
I've come too far
Now I won't go back
This is home
Quite honestly, I dislike most "Contemporary Christian" music, with some notable exceptions. In my opinion, much of this music is poorly done, barely 'music' with bad lyrics and full of heresies which the artists likely 'know not of.' However, one of the contemporary Christian artists I absolutely love is Australian singer and songwriter Michelle Tumes. Besides being an excellent musician, Tume's lyrics are often quite superb poetry. She often integrates Latin liturgical phrases and other traditional Christian music, such as the "Cherubic Hymn" - "Now lay aside all earthly cares...", into her music. I highly recommend Michelle Tume's music, most especially her newest CD called, "Michelle Tumes" and also an older one entitled, "Center of My Universe." To tell the truth, we own all four of her CD's - one of the few artists of any sort that we can make that claim. [Josh Groban being another... but that's another story...] You can listen to some samples from her newest release at: Michelle Tumes Listen.
One of Michelle Tumes excellent pieces was among others found on the "Music Inspired by the Chronicles of Narnia" release, entitled, "Untamed Lion." Of course, what can top C.S. Lewis and this well made film? Not much in the realm of modern literature or films! The lyrics are:
Untame Lion
Recorded By: Michelle Tumes (music by Michelle Tumes/words by Merrill Farnsworth)
Inspired By: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
Album: Listen
I love an untame lion
He's calling me to come
My cold heart, how it hesitates
I want to turn and run
His power is dangerous
His power is endless love(chorus)
He's calling me
To a place where love's the only song
He's calling me
To a place where night will dance
With endless dawn
Dancing on and on and onI try to hide in sleeping
His music fills my dreams
I'm filled with longing for a place
A place I've never seen
He's calling, I want Him so
He's calling, I can't let go
(chorus)(bridge)
Shawdows falling, His voice keeps calling
Golden as the sun
It is morning without warning
I fall into His love
(chorus)
