I Have Returned Songtext
von Sue Dodge

I have returned to the God of my childhood
To the same simple faith as a child I once knew
Like a prodigal son, I long for my loved ones
For the comforts of home and the God I outgrew

I have returned to the God of my childhood
Bethlehem′s faith, the prophet's Messiah
He′s Jesus to me, eternal deity
Praise His name, I have returned

I have returned to the God of my father
The most God-like man a child could know
Oh, I just heard a shout from the angels in glory
Praising the Lord, a child has come home


I have returned to the God of my father
Creator of Heaven and Earth, God of the universe
He's Jesus to me, eternal deity
Praise His name, I have returned

I have returned to the Yahweh of Judah
On my knees I did fall where the wall now stands
This lesson I've learned as I work my way homeward
The Savior of all is the comfort to man

I have returned to the Father of Abraham
The Shepherd of Moses, who called Him the great I Am
He′s Jesus to me, eternal deity
Praise His name, I have returned

I have returned to the God of my father
Creator of Heaven and Earth, God of the universe
He′s Jesus to me, eternal deity
Praise His name, I have returned
