Verse 1
What have I done with my life
Is there a way to make it alright
How do I get back on course
When all I have left are tears and remorse I’m just a prodigal out here alone
Now, I think it’s time to go home
But what will be waiting for me
What kind of welcome will I receive
Will there be sorrow, will there be shame Will I be judged for causing such pain Will they forgive and forget all my wrongs Or have I been gone for far too long
Verse 2
Oh but wait, is this real or a dream
I see my father running to me
Holding his arms open wide
Filled with compassion, tears in his eyes Finally wrapped in his loving embrace I’m amazed when I hear him say
Chorus
It’s time to celebrate
A lost one has come home
Time to celebrate
There’s rejoicing ‘round the throne Put on the ring and don the robe Let’s sing and shout today
It’s time to celebrate
Bridge
No matter how long you have waited
Or how much time you have wasted
Oh what joy when you hear the Father say…
