Lyrics

When I first came on this journey, I had no idea what was waiting
When I left the old country with my bags and my bravery
Caught up in a wave of inspiration
I thought it was me deciding
But now I see I was guided, ‘cause

I’m living in the land of Israel
I’m building, it’s building me
I’m loving that I’m a part of Your plan
I see it unfolding
How did You get me here?
I’m not in control, it’s clear
So, teach me to be the best I can be
I’m here, I’m listening, I’m here
I’m home, finally

So, I don’t speak the language just yet, but I’ve got friends
And yes, sabras can be prickly sometimes, but I’m growing a thick skin
We’re sweet on the inside
And even though it’s challenging sometimes
I’ve never felt more alive, now

I’m living in the land of Israel
I’m building, it’s building me
I’m loving that I’m a part of Your plan
I see it unfolding
How did You get me here?
I’m not in control, it’s clear
So, teach me to be the best I can be
I’m here, I’m listening
I’m here
I’m home, finally

And I believe You gave this land to my forefather Avraham
an eternal covenant was sealed in his flesh
I believe in the prophecies
The Jews will be returning
I believe this is it, it’s happening
That’s why

I’m living in the land of Israel
I’m building, it’s building me
I’m loving that I’m a part of Your plan
I see it unfolding
How did You get me here?
I’m not in control, it’s clear
So, teach me to be the best I can be
I’m here, I’m listening
I’m here
I’m home

Teach me to be the best I can be
I’m here, I’m listening
I’m here, I’m listening
I’m here
I’m home, finally
