While in my youth
I was your child to feed
Now we're both grown
And it's your love I need
Father, I come to you
So bitter and ashamed
Father, I come to you
Cause our world is not the same
So many times I lied
And ran away to hide
Yet when I was in need
You were there by my side
Now that I'm home with you, Father
I'm walking a straight path
I'm walking a straight path
At last
Sometimes when I'm staring
Off at that great sky
I see my childhood flashing
Before my very eyes
Father, please forgive me
The sorrow that I did bring
Father, won't you give to me
Your blessing
For from you I neglected
Disrespected you
Gave up on you
Now I'm confessing to you
Now that I'm home with you, Father
I'm walking a straight path
I'm walking a straight path
At last
Denying the hurt in my heart
My soul paid the crime
Finding that nothing survives
But the memories inside
Of me
Inside my mind
Father, I'm caught between
The old ways and the new
Father, can you teach me
How to walk in your shoes?
You always told me
There's no room for resentment
I realize now
For you
There is no replacement
Now that I'm home with you, Father
I'm walking a straight path
I'm walking a straight path
At last
I'm walking a straight path


I'm walking a straight path
I'm walking a straight path
I'm walking a straight path
I'm walking a straight path
