Sidewalk Prophets, “Prodigal”

Contemporary Christian pop/rock group Sidewalk Prophets has returned with their new single, Prodigal, and it is absolutely gorgeous.

Written by band members Dave Frey and Ben McDonald with songwriter/producer Seth Mosley, Prodigal is a stunning song of forgiveness and reunion to God that will easily minister to the most cynical among you. The universal message of God’s redemptive love should speak to anyone in a valley season, and the irresistible arrangements make it a perfect pop song. I absolutely, 100% love it!

PRODIGAL Lyrics
Sidewalk Prophets

It’s been a long time since you felt peace
In the valley you made where you’re not meant to be
Where the shame throws shadows on you
But don’t you forget

That you’re headed to more
But you’ve settled for less
Don’t buy the lie “it’s as good as it gets”
The same feet that left you lost and alone
Are the very same feet that can bring you back home

Wherever you are, whatever you did
It’s a page in your book, but it isn’t the end
Your Father will meet you with arms open wide
This is where your heart belongs
Come running like a prodigal

There will be nights, when you hear whispers
Of the life you once knew, don’t let it linger
Cause there’s a grace that falls upon you
Don’t you forget
In the places your weak
He is very strong
Don’t ever believe “you don’t deserve love”
The same God that protects you when you’re lost and alone
Is the very same God that is calling you home

Wherever you are, whatever you did
It’s a page in your book, but it isn’t the end
Your Father will meet you with arms open wide
This is where your heart belongs
Come running like a prodigal

Oh…
Let your life be made new
Oh…
As you come into view
Your Father’s not waiting, no he’s running too
He’s running straight to you

Wherever you are, whatever you did
It’s a page in your book, but it isn’t the end
Your Father will meet you with arms open wide
This is where your heart belongs
Come running like a prodigal
