Wanderin’ Man

v.1
I have walked many a mile
With barely a smile
For stranger or friend

I have spent too many words
On things you have heard
Again and again

(chorus 1 & 2)
And time is rolling by
Like a river running dry
Hope I find a love of my own
A place to call home
For a wanderin’ man

v.2
I regret wars I have won
Lives I’ve undone
For what i could gain

I have wept many a tear
Livin’ in fear
I’d do it again

v.3
I’m so tired of goin’ nowhere
And endin’ up there
Afraid and alone

I have walked my last mile
Your song and your smile
Welcome me home

(chorus 3)
And time is standing by
Like a lazy summer night
I did find a love of my own
A place to call home
For a wanderin’ man

    "I find Marc Heinrich’s music moving and his lyrics faithful to Scripture, sobered with the real world of suffering, and creative in expression. I am happy to say: Listen and learn and be drawn further up and further in to God’s presence."

    John Piper
    Pastor for Preaching & Vision
    Bethlehem Baptist Church
    Minneapolis, MN


    "I love Further Up and Further In Music because I love Marc Heinrich. Marc is a man with a powerful gift for songwriting who loves Jesus and the local church. His lyrics are always thoughtful and theologically robust, driving us to the supremacy of Christ and the glory of the gospel."

    R W Glenn

    Pastor of Preaching & Vision
    Redeemer Bible Church
    Minnetonka, MN


    "Is that dirge they're playing one of yours Heinrich? It's not too bad." (on hearing the worship team run Only Jesus)

    "Marc is a very funny guy and a good friend. But neither of those reasons tell you why I appreciate his songs. Marc uses language and music in a creative way to express genuine struggles and joys in light of a sovereign, gracious Redeemer."
