Please Come Back

"Please Come Back" - Michelle Tumes

I can't breathe
It's agony
Wondering where you are

Picture me on my knees
Have you run too far?

Can you hear
Can you hear the sound of my heart break
With each step you take
Can you feel
Can you feel me when I say

Please come back to me
I miss you, will you come to your senses
Please come back to me
I await the day when I prepare the feast
And I embrace you running to me

All I am
All I have
Is yours to find
You hide and seek
You think you're free
But you're wasting time

I can hear
I can hear the sound of footsteps pounding
Regret resounding
I believe
I believe the hour is near

What would you give for a ransomed heart
Would it cost too much
I'm telling you now, if you run to me
You will be free

You'll be running, you'll be running back to me


I have been thinking of Christ as the father of the Prodigal Son. He is always calling for us to come back to Him. He's always waiting with open arms, wanting to forgive us and welcome us back into His family. If only we would trust Him and listen for His calling. I felt like He was telling me the other night when I was hurting a lot: "Why do you cry? Why do you wallow in this sty of dirty grief, sadness and pain when I am here? You know I'm here for you and you know you can be happy because I have done so much for you! Can you just trust Me and Come Back? I love you. I've always loved you. There's no need to be sad any longer. Lay it all on me and move on."
He puts things or experiences in our lives for a reason. I honestly believe that to be true. I am so thankful for the lessons I've had to learn even though that learning process has been tough.
I have much more to say but I'll save it for another day! Love Michelle Tume's song!
