And has come to life, he was lost and is found.

Rejection has fled.

Love is crowned.

When you hear this Gospel reading.

A tear comes to the eye.

It is reconciliation spreading

Fatherhood’s loving cry.

But what of us who do the work to the full.

Who are left behind .

Are we resentful .

Perhaps we shouldn’t mind.

Our father is with us always.

Ready for all our faults to give us praise.

…….

Are we the lost one

Going to another land

We are welcome home
