From Lost and Lonely

The worst you'll find is I'm alive
And almost over you.
Yeah, I've survived the tears I've cried
And pain you've put me through.

Lead me from the darkness
Show me where to hide
Why don't you come back to stay this time?
You're the one I love.
You're the one I need.
Hey, Dad.  Won't you please come back to me?

So here I stand not half a man.
I'm ten years old this year.
But me and Mom - we're staying strong
And you're still not here.

Lead me from the darkness
Show me where to hide
Why don't you come back to stay this time?
You're the one I love.
You're the one I need.
Hey, Dad.  Won't you please come back to me?

When I was down you came to me.
You put me on Your knee.
Said, "You're my son, I'll be your Dad."
You brought life back to me.

You lead me from the darkness.
Now I don't need to hide.
It's only through Your Love I feel alive.
You're the one I love.
And I know You love me.
Thank you, my Lord Jesus, for loving me.

Author notes

I wrote this song today.  I was thinking about my history, and it was getting really strong, so I let it out like this.  It's about my father... and my Father.
