Prodigal
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
How many times must we all fall
Before we ever count the cost
How many times
Will we ignore the voice within
Calling us back unto the lord
However did we end up here
Only to find we’re out of place
We know the truth, but still we turn and hide in fear
The father’s calling out to you
Oh prodigal
Oh prodigal
Oh prodigal
Oh prodigal
I know you hear the father’s call
You feel it when he speaks your name
Your heart is racing you feel it pound inside
Your chest and through your soul
Your head is spinning your skin is burning
Oh prodigal
(return to me)
Oh prodigal
(come back to me)
Oh prodigal
(return to me)
Oh prodigal
Don’t allow the enemy this guilt in your head
For he will try to get inside and
Make you lose your mind
So cry out to the lord and ask him
To show you the way home
Though we are sinful and lost in our ways
His love is found and grace abounds
For those who trust in faith
That jesus christ is lord and that he is life!
He is the way, the truth and the life.
No one comes to god except through christ!
Though we deserve not, he will bless
With arms open wide he shows us love
Unlike the world can offer
So stop holding on to your old life
Return unto me and be restored
So stop holding on to your old life
Return unto me and be restored
