“I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. (Luke 15:18)”
Here comes another tear, about to fall
An expression of grief of my heart and soul
Why am I sad? Why am I crying?
“Cause I fell again and caused You pain.
Whenever I fall deep in pit of sin and shame
I tried to ignore You but couldn’t help calling out Your name
For when I go far from You, happiness is gone out of me as well
The inner joy, wonderful peace that I wanted to feel.
For a lot of times I kept on nailing You to the cross
When each time I sin, I felt the emptiness and great loss
But how could You care for me when I’m always drifting apart from You?
How could You still love me when I keep on hurting You?
How could I comprehend the love You have for me?
When I ask for forgiveness, You accepted me back right away
As if I’ve never sinned, as if I’ve never broken all of my promises
As if I’ve not forgotten You especially in times of my happiness.
But like a Faithful Father, You kept on watching along the way
Never tired of waiting, hoping I’d come home one day
Lord Jesus, here I am, Your LOST CHILD–broken and guilty
Thank You for patiently waiting and for not giving up on me! ~
