Infinite Love

Infinite Love I was there the day he came home He had been gone such a long time Through many lands he did roam And now he returned without a dime I watched the somber look on his face I felt his anxiousness; his fear As he walked, he slowed his pace To his father’s house he drew near He had prepared a speech to give He didn’t deserve to be called son He didn’t even deserve to live He knew all the wrong he had done In the distance he heard his father shout Surprised and perplexed, he waited I then wondered what this was about Soon my curiosity would be sated His father ran up to him, embracing him Not at all the reaction the man expected The father then said how he’d missed him Amazingly the man’s fear was not reflected Stuttering and stammering he now stumbled Flowing, the tears were in a steady stream As he felt the love, he was so humbled He had not imagined this, even in his dreams I know the story of that man so well Who receives forgiveness from above The reason it was so easy to tell? I am he, set free by an infinite love!
