Trapped in a bubble, You long for your daughters love and affection...
She longs for yours.
There is only one way in, but its hard to get into.
She will need to swallow her pride by losing all she has,
Becoming naked to be with her father she never knew.
You are like a man with no immune system, trapped inside a bubble...
And she hates you for it.
But as for me, I know....
Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord God Almighty
Youre like a Father whose daughter was stolen.
She likes her thief's house more...
But You still get to see her next door.
You watch as she grows up,
You cry as she calls him, Dad,
You yell as she runs in the road,
She sees you only as bad.
But you know so much more.
But once she comes home she'll hear....
Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on her.
Put a ring on her finger and sandals on her feet.
Bring the fattened calf, or whatever she'd prefer.
Let's have a feast and celebrate,
For this daughter of mine was deceased and is alive -
She was lost and is found.
You are like a Husband with an adulterous wife,
You love her so much so you stick by her side
Although she's never home to see You wait,
She thinks Youre asleep cause shes out so late.
Little does she know You have flowers in hand,
The amount is more than all the grains of sand.
So, You wait and wait, but she isn't coming home.
She thinks she'll get hit and forever be stoned.
But once you come home you'll know...
Then the LORD said to me,
"Go and love your wife again, though she commits adultery with another lover.
This will show the LORD still loves Israel,
even though the people have turned to others."
You are like a Father fighting for the North,
She is your daughter defending the South,
As Your enemies draw forth,
Curses shoot from their mouth.
You move on, inch by inch,
Until you see the one who makes you flinch.
You avoid your love at all cost
She fights her Father til He lost.
Her pride jumps, she says "He'll be proud!"
Til she sees her Fathers face dead in the crowd.
Once you join Him you'll hear...
For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son,
Much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Through whom we have now received reconciliation.
Youre the God of creation,
Like Eve, she falls in temptation,
Youre the God of the Israelites,
But like Pharaoh, she always fights,
Youre the King of kings,
Always ready to redeem.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life,
Neither angels nor demons,
Nor past, present, nor future,
Nor depth nor height,
Nor anything else in all creation,
Will be able to separate us from the love of God
That is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
"EVERYONE who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." -Romans 10:13
