Daddy Here I Am Again

“Prodigal”Living on my own, thinking for myself
Castles in the sand, temporary wealth
Walls are falling down, storms are closing in
Tears have filled my eyes, here I am againAnd I’ve held out as long as I can
Now I’m letting go and holding out my hand

Daddy, here I am again
Will You take me back tonight
I went and made the world my friend
And it left me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That You first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again

Curse this morning sun
Drags me in to one more day
Of reaping what I’ve sown
Of living with my shame
Welcome to my world
And the life that I have made
Where one day you’re a prince
The next day you’re a slave

 

 

I Wish

I pray for you everyday whether you know it or not. It hurts me to see you this way and how far you have slipped away. I wish the tears I’ve cried could bring you back to Him. But day by day my hope drifts away, I dry my eyes and go on with my life. I wish you could see what I see when I look in your eyes and the light just seems to die. Please run back to Him. He is calling your name, His heart is sad when you look the other way, He crys for you everyday. The things of this world will do you no good, in time they will all pass. I just wish you would turn your eyes to the skys and then you would know why I cry. Come back to Him, He is calling your name everyday.
