Prodigal God Lyrics by Sam McCabe

2022

[Verse 1]
Prodigal God, throwing out mercy like bread on the water
Taking the ones who are down on their luck, and making them sons and daughters
Giving out love without thought or remorse, like it never runs dry
Prodigal God, I need what You got if You got the supply

[Refrain]
There have been times when I wished You dead
But that don't bother You
You always give me just what I want
[?] what I want is You

[Verse 2]
Prodigal God, You lay down Your life like You’ll live again
Maybe You know something I don't and that's resurrection
You’re throwing out seeds and it seems like a waste to my naked eye
Prodigal God, Your love don't depend on the ebb in mine

[Refrain]
I tried to love to get what I want
To fill up the void that's inside
Like a vending-machine, I used You as a means
To get what my heart really prized

[Verse 3]
Prodigal God, You give second chances hundreds of times
If grace had a limit, You know that I'd spend it; I already tried
From Your porch, You sit as You watch for the sign of a child returning
Prodigal God, You never give up and that's what I'm learning

[Chorus]
You're coming back to me
You're coming back to me
You’re coming back to me
You’re coming back to me
Oh, You're coming back to me
You’re coming back to me
You're coming back to me
You're coming back to me

[Outro]
Prodigal God, giving out time like You'll never grow old
You used generations to tell of Your patience, and that story is still being told
