Verse I

I read about a man who lost a fight against
temptation
He left the comfort of the ones who loved and
cared for him.
He thought he had to see the world and all the
great creation.
But he never realized the price that he would
pay for sin.
One morning he awakened from a night of riotous
living.
Searching for a dollar wondering where his
friends had gone.
With his troubled mind so weary, his body tired
and lonely,
His heart said son, "it's time to go back home."

Chorus

It's time to go back home, it's the right thing
to do.
There's a pillow there to rest your weary mind,
and the one you left is still loving you.
Just turn yourself around, on that path of sin.
Those footprints that carried you away, will
take you home again.

Verse 2

Ole Satan tries to trap you in this life of mass
confusion.
He sets his great temptations to make a
Christian fall.
He brings out all your failures and tells you
that you're losing.
Then makes you think that you're against the
wall.
But don't forget your Father, who is watching
his dear children
Though you may have fallen, he wants you to see
it through
He knows where you have drifted, and the mess
you have gotten in
He's waiting at the house to forgive you.
