prodigal waves

I don’t know how to get back to where we once were
Where we ever there, or did we just wish for and hope so
If we wanted to leave, and go separate ways, we would’ve left by now
We’re in a deep and dark ocean, swimming on waves of change, waves of grace.

Something deep inside of me holds me like an anchor here
In my wildest dreams, I run fast and free
Home in Love, acceptance and peace.
But there’s a long road ahead, resting on the promise
That You always heal – teach me to run.

I don’t know how to let go, to begin to unearth
Thousands of tears, thousands of wounds I’ve managed to ignore
I would rather run than deal with the pain, it’s easier that way
But it’s Perfect Love that won’t leave me alone in this place.

Something deep inside of me holds me like an anchor here
In my wildest dreams, I run fast and free
Home in Love, acceptance and peace.
But there’s a long road ahead, resting on the promise
That You always heal – teach me to run.

To run into Your arms, bury my head in your neck
Hear you whisper of your Love and feel comfort from your breath.
To run like a prodigal home, expecting her Father’s acceptance
In the midst of utter failure and unworthiness.

Something deep inside of me holds me like an anchor here
We’re in a deep and dark ocean, swimming on waves of change, waves of grace
We’re not alone in this place.
