Wrong again,

Father I hate to tell you this

You taught me how to hit the mark

And once again I've missed,

Touch the fire

You always said that I 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 forgiveness 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 forgiveness 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

Forgiveness that your showing me,

I see the answer in your eyes

Love and mercy realized

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 forgiveness in your smile

I thought you would scold me

Instead your just hold me,

Thought you would judge me,

Instead you just love me,

So sure you'd reject me

Wrong again.
