Me, The Prodigal

Why do you, why do you run to me? Why do you put your arms around me? Don't you know what I've done? Don't you know who I've become? I was hiding in the darkness, until you showed me the light Running straight to hell when you turned my blind to sight Now I'm alive and breathing, you have set me free And I am left here wondering why you chose to save Me, the Prodigal Me, the Prodigal How could you, how could you love me? How could you forgive me? I don't deserve a love like this When all I've been is Judas' kiss I was hiding in the darkness, until you showed me the light Running straight to hell when you turned my blind to sight Now I'm alive and breathing, you have set me free And I am left here wondering why you chose to save Me, the Prodigal Me, the Prodigal I was the sheep that went astray, turned aside to my own way But you looked upon my helpless case - Oh, the depths of endless grace You left your throne at God's right hand; took on flesh, became a man The perfect lamb without a stain, lived to take my sinful pain The God of Life condemned to die, and I was screaming "Crucify!" You bore the wrath; you took my shame - Salvation by no other name Now worship our victorious King for death has finally lost its sting You shattered death; you beat the grave. I can't believe that you forgave me, the prodigal Me, the prodigal
