the prodigal
The Prodigal by Sovereign Grace Music
I love it! Such a powerful and moving song, reflecting God's mercy and grace. Also, the tune is nice and her voice is beautiful.
you held out your arms, I see them still... you never left, you never will...
So much assurance :)
Something I've learnt that people can never offer.
Sometimes I forget this... it's good to be reminded that we should always rely on Jesus and not on humans because only He can fulfil our desires.
You held out Your arms, I walked away
Insolent, I spurned Your face
Squandering the gifts You gave to me
Holding close forbidden things
Destitute, a rebel still, a fool in all my pride
The world I once enjoyed is death to me
No joy, no hope, no lifeWhere now are the friends that I had bought
Gone with every penny lost
What hope could there be for such as I
Sold out to a world of lies
Oh, to see Your face again, it seems so distant now
Could it be that You would take me back
A servant in Your house
You held out Your arms, I see them still
You never left, You never will
Running to embrace me, now I know
Your cords of love will always hold
Mercy’s robe, a ring of grace
Such favor undeserved
You sing over me and celebrate
The rebel now Your child
