The Prodigal Son

A prodigal son once strayed from his father

To travel a land of hunger and pain

And now I can see the end of my journey

I'm going to

Heaven again

I leave you the day to help all your neighbors

I leave you the night to solemnly pray

So try to repent and ask for forgiveness

We'll meet up in

Heaven, someday

Goodbye to this world, with all of its sorrows

Goodbye to the fields that

I used to roam

I'm going away where life is eternal

My Shepherd is callin' me home

From out of the sky,

He's coming to meet me

To wash all my sins and call me

His ownHis servants will bring a ring for my finger

And never no more will

I roam
