Father Of Forgiveness

Who's that up the road?

The man who went his own way

Who wasted all his winnings

Has he come home to stay?

The son who'd lost his way

Is back among the living

Let's take it back to the beginning...

Oh, Father I've returned

I'm sorry I was wrong

I feel so undeserving

After all I've done

But I see your open eyes

And I feel your spirit rising in my chest

You're the Father of forgiveness (I've come home)

You're the Father of forgiveness

Now that we are here

And after all the tears

Father what do you want from me?

All I have is yours

I don't have much to give

But a heart that needs forgiving

The flesh is tired but the spirit's willing

Oh, Father I've returned

The one who left alone

And you give me your kingdom

And tell me it's my own

And I see your open arms

And I know that I have found my place of rest (the man's home)

In the Father of forgiveness (I've come home)

You're the Father of forgiveness

No need to run

Under the son

You are a brother

Answer the call

He loves us all

Just as the other

Just take the fall in total trust

Like a child trust it's mother

Let's reach up to the Father (in Jesus Christ)

Let's reach up to the Father (in Jesus Christ)

Let's reach up to the Father (in Jesus Christ)

Let's reach up to the Father!

Oh, Father I've returned

I'm sorry I was wrong

I feel so undeserving

After all I've done

And I see your open arms

And I know that I have found my place of rest (the man's home)

In the Father of forgiveness (the man's home -I've come home - the man's home)

Oh, Father of forgiveness (welcome home)
