I'm Coming Back...

[My favorite parable for many years.... the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15.. a scene so poignant... a love of a waiting God that so touched my heart... To me, it captures the essence of our loving God who never gives up on us. Not only that, He waits for us to return to Him... When this truth enters deep within my heart, it allows me to let go of people and circumstances knowing that God does not give up on them (so must I), knowing that He not only does not give up on us when we stray away, but He waits for us... wow! He waits for us with a heart burning for us and longs for us to return...]


You must be waiting for me
With eyes looking out for me
You must be longing for me
With a heart that's burning deep within

I remembered Your love
Your love for me
And I arise
And find my way to You


(Chorus)
So I'm coming back
I'm coming back
I'm coming
To Your arms of love

I'm coming back
I'm coming back
I'm coming back
To Your loving embrace

Jesus, my First Love
Jesus, my First Love

--------------------
You must be waiting for me
With eyes looking out for me
You must be longing for me
With a heart that's burning deep within

And from afar
You saw me return
With a heart of compassion
You stretched wide Your arms


(Chorus)
And You ran to me
And You ran to me
And You ran to me
And embrace me with love

And You ran to me
And You ran to me
And You ran to me
And restored with joy

You took all my shame
And received me by Your grace...
