Song Lyrics

"Prayer Of The Prodigal"

by The Sonflowerz
Album: All Over The World

As long as I've known her she has been lost / Almost forgotten, like a fleeting thought / It's been years since I've seen her, years since we've talked / I've heard of her struggles and they've broken my heart / There were battles she chose not to fight / How I wish she could have been stronger / And I prayed for her night after night / But I just can't pray any harder // Lord, teach her to walk in the truth of all that she is in You / Show her the beauty that's waiting to fully break through / You're the only light for the day, the only One who brings rain / Like a flower she'll bloom as she opens her life up to You // There are prodigal daughters and there are prodigal sons ashamed of the people they've finally become / All they see are the failures of their wayward lives / The marks of the journey left them wounded inside / There were battles they chose not to fight / How I wish they could've been stronger / And I prayed for them night after night / Till I just can't pray any harder // Lord, teach them to walk in the truth of all that they are in You / Show them the beauty that's waiting to fully break through / You're the only light for the day, the only One who brings rain / Like a flower they'll bloom as they open their lives up to You // There are times when we sum up our lives by all the mistakes that we've made / But there's a Savior who will take every weakness and turn it for good / Even for those who've been lost on the way // Lord, teach us to walk in the truth of all that we are in You / Like a flower we'll bloom as we open our lives up to You //
