Lyrics
1.There's a story been told, by the Lord long ago, It's the tale of a Dad and His lads. The one took his gold, The other said, "so". Our Father is that great Dad.
2.This story's been lived, by many today. That tale of a Dad and His lads. The Father forgives, His "lad's" everyday, Our Father is that great Dad.
CHORUS:
The Father looked out
On the road leading home
He watched for His son everyday.
As you travel about, in this world as your roam.
Father's watching for you to come home.
Coming home, coming home.
Never more to roam.
Open wide thine arms of love;
Father's watching for you to come home.
