Restored
This song has so many miracles attached to it. Miracles in the studio. Even miracles in the writing process. I wanted to write a song about receiving answers to prayer. A song to help those who seek God’s guidance, who want to feel Him speaking to them, personally. I love the New Testament verse from James 1:5, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God… and it shall be given him.” This song shares many of my personal moments of having His light restored to me through prayer and the answers He sent to my heart. I hope it can help you feel Him near you, answering your prayers.

Lyrics
In the early spring,
In a grove of trees,
A young man knelt to pray.
For the world he knew
Was a world confused,
And he wanted to know the way.
Then a pillar of light descended
And the Father and Son appeared.
When they spoke his name
On that blessed day,
The whole world changed.
Now there is more light
To shine in the dark
And more hope to fill every heart.
More truth to know God is there
And He will answer our prayers.
More peace and strength in the storm
And more power to gather us home.
More faith to lead us closer to Jesus
Our Lord.
All because His gospel was restored.
In a troubled time,
In the growing strife,
If heaven seems so far,
Find a quiet place,
Put the world away,
And ask with an open heart.
For the truth only God can give us
And the promise of joy and peace;
And the time to come like the rising sun,
When the whole world will see
That there is more light
To shine in the dark
And more hope to fill every heart.
More truth to know God is there
And He will answer our prayers.
More peace and strength
In the storm and more power
To gather us home.
More faith to lead us closer to Jesus,
Our Lord.
All because His gospel was restored.
All because His gospel was restored.

I am a convert to the church, baptised on January 23rd, 2021. The gospel of the One True Living God is so beautiful and precious and I am forever grateful that as we seek Jesus Christ we will find him more and more. This song invited the Spirit to testify to me in my chest and I can't even explain how wonderful it feels!
