The Prodigal Son

There was a young man who had the best of everything

He was the first born of a wealthy man

But he was not satisfied with the best of everything

So he took his possessions in his hand

He traveled far and wide and he tasted worldly pleasure

But deep inside, he was lonely without measure

He wound up in a pig pen, nearly dead

Then he raised his eyes toward heaven and he said

I will arise and go back to my father's house

I will beg him to forgive me for the fool I've been

I will arise and go back to my father's house

I will gladly be a servant if he'll take me back again

I was a young man who had the best of everything

I was the first born of a hardworking man

But I was not satisfied with the best of everything

So I took my possessions in my hand

I traveled far and wide and I tasted worldly pleasure

But deep inside, I was lonely without measure

I wound up in las vegas, nearly dead

Then I raised my eyes toward heaven and I said

I will arise and go back to my father's house

I will beg him to forgive me for the fool I've been

I will arise and go back to my father's house

I will gladly be a servant if he'll take me back again?

So I did arise and go back to my father's house

I said, father, I'm sick and tired of being alone

So I did arise and go back to my father's house

And then he wrapped his arms around me

And said, son, you're welcome home
