The Prodigal Son

Lyrics

[G] A Prodigal son once [C] strayed from his [G] father
 To travel a land of [A] hunger and [D] pain
 And [G] now I can see the [C] end of my [G] journey
 I'm going to [D] heaven a-[G] gain.
 I leave you the day, to help all your neighbors
 I leave you the night, to solemnly pray
 So try to repent and ask for forgiveness
 We'll meet up in heaven, someday.
 Goodbye to this world, with all its sorrows
 Goodbye to the fields, that I used to roam
 I'm going away where, life is eternal
 My Shepherd is callin me home.
 From out of the sky, He's coming to meet me
 To wash all my sins and call me His own
 His servants will bring, a ring for my finger
 And never no more will I roam.
