I'm the boy with loaves and fish
Such an unimpressive gift
It's not a lot, but it's all I got
So I lay it at Your feet
I'm the paraplegic son
I'm a lame man trying to run
But You welcome me to sit down and eat
At the table of Your love
At the table of Your love
'Cause I could run like Jonah
But I'd never get away
Go down like Lazarus
But You pull me from the grave
I could throw away everything You gave me
You would throw away everything to save me
I am the prodigal
But You're the prodigal God
Been a doubter just like Thomas
But, Lord, You never broke Your promise
So when I can't see, I'll still believe
On this side of the grave
And I still get scared like Peter
When You call me up to meet You
But the wind and waves, they still obey
The One who made it all
You're the One who made it all, yeah
I could run like Jonah
But I'd never get away
Go down like Lazarus
But You pull me from the grave
I could throw away everything You gave me
You would throw away everything to save me
I am the prodigal
But You're the prodigal God
We're all children
We're sons and daughters
Loved by the Father
Everyone
We're all welcome
We're all accepted
And no one rejected
No, not even one
'Cause I could run like Jonah
But I'd never get away
Go down like Lazarus
But You pull me from the grave
I could throw away everything You gave me
You would throw away everything to save me
I am the prodigal
But You're the prodigal God, yeah
I could run like Jonah
But I'd never get away
Go down like Lazarus
But You pull me from the grave
I could throw away everything You gave me
You would throw away everything to save me
I am the prodigal
But You're the prodigal God, yeah
I am the prodigal
But You're the prodigal God
