Come back Home

Come back home o wandering daughter
Come to the embrace of your waiting father
Come to the open arms of your loving mother
The home where you had joy without vendetta

The world outside is cold and spitting
Full of wolves ravening and serpents biting
Filled with desperate folks who look inviting
But whose hearts are depraved with all manners desecrating

He has created you with painstaking precision
Modelled to His image with delicate additions
With an appearance that defies every opposition
You are destined for a glorious life of commendation

Your body, like a tree beside the river, is patterned to prosper
Made for His son, redeemed, refined and accomplished
Not for the proud brute and beast whose way is abolished
Who had nothing but an impression of life improper

Consultation with a nonnative is a debacle
Paths to success always come with doors and obstacles
And must be confronted with all possible tentacles
Only believe in your Creator the only Oracle

So come back home o wandering daughter
Let's bond, commune and plan together
Come to the warm embrace of your waiting father
And the open arms of your loving mother
