Poem
COMING BACK HOME Who says I have no choice to sin To love and live and delight in sin? T’is my choice and one I can choose To live in lies and follow the flies But here now is the sober thought Of whether sin will lead me Home. I can smoke all day and night And ask God for funds when I’m broke I can drink all I want And ask Jesus for more wine when it dries But whether drinking or smoking are done at Home Or if it can lead me Home is the sober thought. I can cheat in tricky ways And ask God for cunning wisdom in everyway I can steal from anyone And ask God to show me who is still rich But whether I can cheat or steal at Home Or if that is what God said is the Way, is the sober thought. I can beat her with my strength And thank God for my authority as a man I can bully them for years And make them wish they were never born But whether I can beat or bully them back at Home Or if these can lead me Home is the sober thought. I can be current with the world’s hit records And ask the Spirit for direction to the latest store I can be found in the coolest club Praying that thugs never find the place But whether there is a club or record store at Home Or whether secular songs can lead me Home is the sober thought. There are many things that I can do But which ones can take me Home? Ah! I will stay back, look and ask Him For as the Father, He should know the Way Home There are many things to ponder and do But which ones take me straightly Home?
