Hank Williams - The Prodigal Son - Hank Williams

A Prodigal son once strayed from his father

To travel a land of hunger and pain

And now I can see the end of my journey

I’m going to heaven a- gain

I leave you the day, to help all your neighbors

I leave you the night, to solemnly pray

So try to repent and ask for forgiveness

We’ll meet up in heaven, someday

Goodbye to this world, with all its sorrows

Goodbye to the fields, that I used to roam

I’m going away where, life is eternal

My Shepherd is callin me home

From out of the sky, He’s coming to meet me

To wash all my sins and call me His own

His servants will bring, a ring for my finger

And never no more will I roam
