apologetix – hurry home wayward son lyrics
parody of carry on wayward son performed by kansas and written by kerry livgren
(luke 15:11-32)
chorus
hurry home my wayward son
there’ll be a feast when you are done
stay here with me and be blest
don’t you hide no more
once i raised a couple boys — yes, my two sons
didn’t ever think that i’d ever lose one
i was sure he’d never try it
but he grew too wild
so he asked if he could have his inheritance
though it saddened me i still was his parent
i hear my boy’s been spending freely
i just fear he’ll pay
chorus
as i’m waiting there’s a famine where he’s been
my son may be in the gutter and bleedin’
but didn’t i train him to be a wise man, well
he should be safe, but i don’t know
from the stories people tell me he’s broke and
tossin’ out his life to pigs in an old pen
i sit on the porch and wait here for him
will i see my boy this day?
chorus
hurry home — you will always be my boy
hurry home — there’s no need to be shy boy
though you left you’re always family
surely there’s a place for you
chorus
luke 15:20
“so he got up and came to his father. but while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt comp-ssion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.”
