Father’s House

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I walked here alone Found my own way Carried my burden through the crooked and straight [Verse 2] I have come to the garden And stepped through the stream That no one can cross o'er but me [Chorus] Don't make me wait to go to my father's house There's a light on the porch and it's cold out If I wait to go to my father's house I don't know when I'll make it home [Verse 3] I have counted my battles To measure my war Dreaming of a mansion with fireproof floors [Verse 4] I have come to the river To dip my head and shiver And knelt at the end of the day [Chorus] Don't make me wait to go to my father's house There's a light on the porch and it's cold out If I wait to go to my father's house I don't know when I'll make it home [Verse 5] In the end I'll look back on the days I was traveling alone Traveling alone [Chorus] Don't make me wait to go to my father's house There's a light on the porch and it's cold out If I wait to go to my father's house I don't know when I'll make it home
