Hymn/Song Information

JOY OVER THE RETURNING PRODIGAL




Hark! through the courts of heaven
Angelic voices sound:
He that was dead now lives again;
He that was lost is found.


God of unfailing grace,
Send down thy Spirit now;
Oh, raise the lowly soul to hope,
And make the lofty bow.


In countries far from home,
On earthly husks who feed,
Back to their Father’s house, O Lord,
Their wandering footsteps lead.


Then at each soul's return,
The heavenly harp shall sound:
He that was dead now lives again;
He that was lost is found!
