Verse 1

A                 A2

 While I was far away

          Dmaj7

You were listening 

                  A

Listening for my call

                    A2

In the midst of my mistakes

          Dmaj7

You were waiting for me

                   A

Waiting to catch my fall



Pre-chorus

         F#m   E    D

Now I'm coming to myself

      A          C#m

I realize I was wrong 

     F#m     E         D

I confess I need Your help

         A        C#m7

I will arise and go



Chorus 1

          Dmaj7               Bm7

I'm going back to the Father, back to the One

    F#m                    Amaj7

Who offers forgiveness for all that I've done 

      Dmaj7                  Bm7

As He runs to embrace me, He calls me His son

       A           

And I'm home

       Dmaj7              Bm7

Going back to the Father, back to the place

      F#m                Amaj7

Where all of my sin and shame is erased 

        Dmaj7             Dm7

By His unfailing love and unending grace

And I'm home



Verse 2

A                        A2

 I was stumbling in the dark

           Dmaj7

You were whispering

                   A

Whispering to my heart

                      A2

Then You saw me from afar

          Dmaj7

You came running to me

              A

Running with open arms



[Chorus 1]

There's a ring on my hand, a robe on my shoulders

You called me Your son when I thought it was over

Now I'm home,     now I'm home
