Joy overflowing,
A heart is calling,
Pleading a new start
The journey ever delightful
To welcome a lost one, now found
Praise at my feet,
I am welcomed volitionally
My Father and I ever so proud
That the Kingdom thrives
Hear the angels cheer so loud
Time is passing
The soul is lacking
Each day growing weary
And see how I have been shut out
Sorrow begrips me, my tears are endless
The slate full once more
My stay cut short, I’m let go
The journey dejects me
Lost is the same soul, savoring in sin,
My Father and I, see us weep
Time has elapsed,
The soul is calling again
And I go running without restrain
To wipe that slate clean
Undeterred by the recurrent sinner
