Prodigals and Perfections

You are the Father of the runaway child
Peace for the one so rebellious and wild
You went in the street, saw what laid at Your feet and smiled
You love the one who decided to stay
The role of perfection he was longing to play
You gave it all up for all he still could not pay
Whether prodigal or perfection
All are lambs who’ve gone astray
We were drowning in the deception
Until we heard You say, «I love you.»
Oh my dear Father, You’re patient and kind
To reach out to all those who walk around blind
We could search this whole world and no greater love we would find
Whether prodigals or perfections
We will all stand side by side
Under the cross of redemption
With one voice, all of Your children will cry
«I love You, I love You with all my heart
I want You, I want You to be my Home»
Wherever You are is where I want to be
Wherever you are
I’m home now
«I love you, I love you with all My heart
I want you, I want you to be My home»
