Wrong Again


Wrong again
Father I hate to tell you this
You taught me how to hit the mark
and once again I missed

Touch the fire
You always said that I'd get burned
Why is it so hard to remember
All the lessons I have learned?

How can you look at me that way
When I have failed so many times
Showing me love you tell the world
this child is mine
How can you walk that extra mile
I see forgivness in your smile
So sure you'd reject me
Wrong again.

Once again
Lord I have wandered from your path
thought I knew a better way
falling short of what you've asked

standing here
I don't deserve a second chance
and I can't conceal
the shame I feel
it's more than I can stand

How can you look at me that way
When I have failed so many times
Showing me love you tell the world
this child is mine
How can you walk that extra mile
I see forgivness in your smile
So sure you'd desert me
Wrong again.

When I look into your face
and see the power of your grace
I find it so hard to believe
forgivness that you're showing me
I see the answer in your eyes
Love and mercy realised
Finally the truth has set me free

How can you look at me that way
When I have failed so many times
Showing me love you tell the world
this child is mine
How can you walk that extra mile
I see forgivness in your smile

I thought you would scold me
instead you just hold me
Thought you would judge me
instead you just love me
so sure you'd reject me
wrong again
