He Walked Away-changed “She to He” By Barlow Girl

"He Walked Away"
He couldn't take one more day
Home was more his prison now
Independence called out
He had to get it
A fight was all he needed
To give him reason
He slammed the door with no goodbye
And knew that it was time
Now he's driving too fast
He didn't care to glance behind
And through his tears he laughed
It's time to kiss the past goodbye
I'm finally on my own
Don't try to tell me no
There's so much more for me
Just watch what I will be
He walked away
Couldn't say why he was leaving
He walked away
He left all he had believed in
He walked away
Not a day goes by
For the one he's left behind
They're always asking why
And thoughts of him consume their mind
God please let him know
The love we tried to show
We'd promise anything
If you'd just bring him home
Tell him we love him
Tell him he's wanted
One more thing God
Tell him please come home
Please come home
The choice is yours alone now
Tell me how this story ends


[spoken:]
While the son was still a long way off
His father saw him, and felt compassion for him
and ran and embraced him and kissed him
"Let us celebrate for this child of mine was dead
and he has come back to life,
He was lost and now he is found"
and they began to celebrate
[Luke 15:20 and 24]

Don’t know where to begin, it’s like my world’s caving in

And I try but I can’t control my fear

Where do I go from here?

Sometimes it’s so hard to pray when You feel so far away

But I am willing to go where You want me to God, I trust You

There’s a raging sea right in front of me

Wants to pull me in, bring me to my knees

So let the waters rise if You want them to

I will follow You, I will follow YouI will follow You

I will swim in the deep ‘cause You’ll be next to me

You’re in the eye of the storm and the calm of the sea

You’ll never out of reach

God You know where I’ve been, You were there with me then

You were faithful before, You’ll be faithful again

I’m holding Your hand

God Your love is enough,

You will pull me throughI’m holding onto You

God Your love is enough, I will follow YouI will follow You

I Believe

I Believe in the Sun
Even when it's not shining
I Believe in Love
Even when I don't feel it
I Believe in God
Even when He is Silent
