Verse 1
There's a story of a boy who left his father
Against his father's will he travelled far away
He wondered many days
He fell and went astray
He landed in an awful place and wound up falling on his face
His sin wasn't greater than his father's loving grace

Quickly, he realized he made a bad decision
He walked outside the ordered steps God had ordained
So from the depths of his soul
He prayed that God would make him whole
He said I know I failed, I know I sinned
I know your mercy has no end
If I could just get home again
My father will restore again

A (repeat 2x)
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
You restored me

Verse 2
Now I must admit that I am far from perfect
And like the prodigal son I let my father down
But in the error of my ways
I was covered by His grace
In my failure, in my brokenness
I realize that I’m so blessed
In every trial, in every test
I’m surrounded by God’s faithfulness

Oh Lord, You restored me

Bridge
I realize the purpose of the bloodshed on the cross
For my healing, restoration
So I would not be lost, be lost

A (repeat 2x)
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
You restored me

B
I was lost
I was lost
I was lost
You restored me

C (repeat 2x)
Never would have made it
Never would have made it
Never would have made it
You restored me

[talking]

D (repeat 2x)
Hallelujah Jesus
Hallelujah Jesus
Hallelujah Jesus
You restored me

E (repeat 2x)
I’m going to be better than this
I’m going to be better than this
I’m going to be better than this
You restored me

You restored me (repeat 8x) – [talking]

D
Hallelujah Jesus
Hallelujah Jesus
Hallelujah Jesus
You restored me

D
Hallelujah Jesus
Hallelujah Jesus
Hallelujah Jesus
You restored me

I really didn’t deserve it
I really didn’t deserve it
I really didn’t deserve it
You restored me

You restored me (repeat 4x)
