Prodigal

Bruised and Beaten
Lost and defeated
My Shepherd finds me
And carries me home 

Thirsty and wandering
Fatigued and collapsing
My Shepherd finds me
And carries me home 

Sing with me my brethren!
I hear rejoicing in heaven!

Darkness with dusty
Unconscious, now crusty
My Owner cleans me
And carries me home 

Dance with me my brethren!
I hear rejoicing in heaven!

Angry I journeyed
Returning I'm empty
In my heart, unworthy
In dire need of mercy

So my Father accepts me
And welcomes me home


*inspired by Luke 15
