Homeward-bound
09/17/2023
I'm homeward-bound. My feet at last my previous steps retracing;
I'm homeward-bound. My feet at last my previous steps retracing;
Bruised and battered, pressed and shattered,
He looked at the world in wonder;
When a strange scene caught my sight—
A wise young king wrote long ago;
Have you heard the sound of heartbreak?
A dear old friend I missed today;
Why'd You turn Your face away?
When the master calls His chosen
'I know where I'm going,' we say.
When we're young we live our lives
When I once prayed, "Thy will be done"
Yet from my former life I've learned
Nature at it's finest.
I was gripped by lethal fright,
At this world so cold and gray,
