I hear you whisper, “Ray, where are you. You have been away for to long now.”
“I’m sorry Father, all this work just keeps driving you out, driving you out.”
I know I’m hurting, and I know exactly what I need to do, yet its so hard.
My foot treads lightly, doubting the only solid ground, I’ve known thus far.
How could you love me, after all these wicked things Ive done, these things I do?
With all my sinning, I stick this spear deep within you, all the way through.
I feel so empty, how did I fall this far, what have I missed.
Father I beg you, take me away from all this, with clenching fists.
“Enough is enough, son you are made to be just like me, your blood I bleed.”
Sometimes we must die, in order to be set free. I’m finally clean.
Father I’m running, faster than I ever have before, right to your door.
Your arms wide open, Loving me as you did, you do, forever more.
My fear escaping, I finally feel your peace, it consumes me!
You take me burden, the weight is no longer heavy. I can Finally breathe.
“Now that I’m home Lord, please allow me to obey your will. What is your will?”
“I only ask you to believe in me, and tell the world I’m real, I love them still”.
“Please let them know, I love them still.”
“I love you still.”
