i walked until my shoes were dead
a prayer crawling through my heart
a prayer for redemption
forgive me, father, for i have sinned
keep walking, little girl
there’s no forgiveness here
sinners belong in the mud they create
keep walking, fallen one
i see no end to the road i travel
i’m tired and my breath is broken
take me for what i am
i can’t be you, oh father
i have lived a life beyond your borders
i have sung, danced, yelled with abandon
but now i am blind and sore
take me home, oh father, sinner that i am
i have your blood, your heartbeat
i am yours, all yours
whether you like it or not
i have walked far and away from you
but now i am coming home
forgive me, father, for i have sinned
but i am yours, i have your blood
you created me
you gave me life
so open the door and let me in
let your child walk inside
and know your forgiveness
amen
