Die Hintergrundgeschichte zum Song: This is a song that summarises the ups and downs of my vocational discernment. At its heart, the song is my testimony to trusting and putting Jesus first, especially when things are unclear or not as we might wish them to be. It reflects my journey into that deep and unknown place, where God called me to make a deeper surrender to His will. With trust and openness, and certainly heartbreak along the way, the path eventually becomes clear.
Lyrics: All of the choices and voices telling me who I’m meant to be
But we are the branches and Jesus You are the tree
Where shall I go? On You I call, to You I go, You saved my soul
Hoping and trusting You will unveil this mystery
Deeper and deeper down we go
Into a well I’ve never known
Still Your love has carried me so well, though in the dark I could not tell
And even when I couldn’t see, You had a marvellous plan for me
Jesus I will dare to trust in You
For in Your heart is my vocation
Though broken, I’m open to embark on this journey
My vocation awakens when You take the wheel from me
I thought those wedding bells would come, but I was wrong, my heart was stung
In deeper surrender I find new fruit on Calvary
Jesus, where did You go?
Tell me Jesus, where did You go?
When I was alone and my heart it yearned for You
You were hidden in me,
deep within me, You were hidden
Your grace has set me free now to live for You alone
I resisted, but You persisted and then enabled me to see
The Priesthood just as You did, I did not choose You but You chose me
Let it be so - for this I know - outside Your will, I’d hunger still
Now I find fulfilment pouring my life out completely
