Been stuck there under the gun Tired of livin' like the prodigal son Everything has come undone And left me wanting
I'm naked for the world to see So hungry on the inside to believe Come down and direct my feet Start me running
Chorus I've been outta touch But I'm reconnecting I've had enough of my own way And I'm tired of rejecting I realized it was all a lie So I climbed down from the edge I've been outta touch But I'm reconnecting To You
I can feel You under my skin Wanna have You light me up again Tell me where I should begin Keep me turning Power comes from Your extension The words You speak are my intervention Give me sight to know Your intention Light me I'm burning
Song Description: 'This was the last song to make it on the record. There were a couple tunes vying for the final slot, and "Reconnecting" came out on top. Musically it has a very modern feel. It was initially written as a possible dc talk song. The lyric gives a snapshot of a person who's tired of running from God. They're exhausted by their own futile attempts to make life work. On some level, I think this happens to all of us. We sort of go off and do our own thing until it collapses, and then we wake up and say, "I really need to reconnect with God. I need to plug back in to the power source."' - Michael Tait
