Prodigal Lyrics - Artist : PEABOD
Two kinds of children, one Father
Two kinds of drought, but one water Each mocking in our own way, scoffers Each chasing down a different offer Some of us write like we're the author Even though the jar is not the potter Some of us are wild and we wander Taking what we're given with to squander Everybody knows about the runner Running in the fast lane, tryna feed his hunger Gunning for his dad's pay, racking up the numbers Spending big til that day the money went under He wonders living in the slums where he slumbers Can the debt he collected be covered But there is grace even down in the gutter Thank God that he loves the younger brother Home I felt so far from home I heard you call me home When I felt alone With all the debts I owed You ran to bring me home Two kinds of man but one maker Two kinds of sin but one savior One son thinks that he can find favor By working harder than his younger neighbor But there can be an arrogance to labor When I start comparing thinking that I'm greater "Look I built a city, that makes me the the mayor" Forgotten what you give me, that you are my creator I have tried to build it, I have worked hard, I have willed it Filled it Every brick I add I think I've killed it But skills miss let myself down, feeling wilted Stilts get you high but the bar is higher still kid I am not good, I'm the other My storm came I tried to build a bunker But there is even grace for the thunder Thank God that he loves the older brother Home I felt so far from home I heard you call me home When I felt alone With all the debts I owed You ran to bring me You ran to bring me Home I felt so far from home I heard you call me home When I felt alone With all the debts I owed You ran to bring me home Thank God that he runs to us at the moment that we turn back towards him Thank God that he builds me up even when I try to build before him Lord I am prone to wander But you lead me back to water Thank God that your love is stronger To you be all praise and honor Thank God that he runs to us at the moment that we turn back towards him Thank God that he builds me up even when I try to build before him Lord I am prone to wander But you lead me back to water Thank God that your love is stronger To you be all praise and honor Home I felt so far from home I heard you call me home When I felt alone With all the debts I owed You ran to bring me You ran to bring me Home I felt so far from home I heard you call me home When I felt alone With all the debts I owed You ran to bring me home We grow up (ooh) We fall down (home) It's wonderful (home) |
