                                                With some of us
                                                Maybe not all of us
                                                God gives us time
                                                To sin and then
                                                To sin again

                                                Like the tortoise and the hare
                                                Some of our sins occur rapidly
                                                But, for most of us, we plod along
                                                Tortoise like, as our sins accumulate
                                                Over time

                                                But, to God, a sin is a sin, is a sin
                                                And in the end, He asks of each of us
                                                Where have you been
                                                What have you done

                                                Is there no escape, O Lord
                                                Is there no respite
                                                For those who have fought
                                                The good fight and lost
                                                Came up short and found it
                                                Not enough

                                                O my son, and daughters, too
                                                I sent my Son to earth
                                                To live and die just for you
                                                He is your way, your hope,
                                                And your eternal salvation

                                                He beckons to you even now
                                                Even though the hour is late
                                                And too many days are through
                           
                                                Come back home he cries
                                                Come back home to me
                                                And I will take you to our Father
                                                And he shall welcome you home
                                                With a glad heart,
                                                He shall welcome you
                                                Home
