The day I was born
I didn't understand:
What I was getting into
Inside this strange land

I grew up to the age,
Where I noticed other people.
Ignoring only the One
Who was garbed in Royal purple

I walked away
Both far and wide
Neglecting my God
With sin by my side

But one day I broke down
Just couldn't go on.
I could not finish
My perfect Life Song

Then a hand touched me
And I whirled around
There one stood beckoning
That I not make a sound

He led me up the sky
Towards the bright clouds above
The gates made of polished gold
Behold now that love

I stepped on the road
And looked down the path
And saw the courthouse where
I would experience God's wrath.

But instead of anger or saddness
I felt His love and grace
Pulsing through my soul
At and overwhelming pace.

He said, "My Child I love you so
I sent my Son to die for you
For you thou thyself
And all others too

My injured heart ached
From the time when you left
And travelled on wrong--
Your sins were quite heft

Come back, come back,
To your true home right here;
Where happiness with Me
Exists always without fear.
