weglobe - the father ran to him lyrics

[verse 1]
i took my portion
and i left home
spent it all on nothing
now i’m all alone
i fed the pigs
i slept in dirt
i wore my shame
like a dirty shirt
but i remembered my father’s house
and i started walking back
i practiced my apology
for all the things i lacked
[chorus]
but the father ran
he didn’t wait
the father ran
right through the gate
i was still far off
full of mud and sin
but the father ran
and brought me in
[verse 2]
i had my speech ready
i knew what i’d say
“just make me a servant
i can’t be a son today”
but before the words
could leave my mouth
he wrapped his arms around me
and all the shame fell out
[chorus]
the father ran
he didn’t walk
the father ran
before i could talk
i didn’t have to beg
i didn’t have to crawl
the father ran
and caught my fall
[bridge]
he put a ring on my finger
a robe on my back
he threw a party for me
like i never left
he didn’t bring up my past
he didn’t rub it in
he just held me close
and said welcome home again
[chorus]
the father ran
for me
the father ran
and set me free
i was coming home to be a slave
but he made me a son that day
the father ran
the father ran
when he saw me coming
the father ran
he’s running for you too
[outro]
come home
he’s not angry
come home
he’s waiting
come home
he’s already running
