It doesn’t matter what you did and,
doesn’t matter who you’ve been.
You’re not too far, God’s where you are.
—–
Your heart is dark, your soul, a blot;
but who you are, God’s not forgot.
Eternal love is ever hot.
—–
Come now, turn back. You can repent.
The covenant has not been rent.
Return to God and make amends.
—–
The welcome mat is always out.
To love you always, God has vowed.
That God forgives, you need not doubt.
