Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Father, meet me with your arms wide open
The world's done broken your prodigal son
Down that road, I traveled
Everything raveled only came undone
[Verse 2]
Father, lead me down to the river
Wash me in the water 'til I'm whiter than snow
I know I'm not worthy
But tell me there's mercy for the wandering soul
[Verse 3]
I lost my way, but now I'm on my knees
If it's not too late, won't you tell me please?
You got a place for me
A little grace for me
[Verse 4]
Father, meet me in the cool green valley
In all of your glory when my days are done
Name me as one of your chosen
Heaven's unbroken prodigal son
[Verse 5]
Father, meet me with your arms wide open
Lead me down to the river
Meet me in the cool green valley
Name me one of your chosen
Heaven's unbroken prodigal son
