CALLED ME SON AGAIN

I walked through valleys made of doubt
Where every road was closing down
I buried hope beneath the dust
And called it peace, and called it trust

But in the silence of my fall
I heard a voice beyond the wall

Not thunder breaking through the sky
Just mercy whispering: Arise

When I could no longer stand
You reached out Your hand
And called me son again

When my faith fell apart
You opened Your heart
And called me son again

You called me son again
You called me son again

I wore my shame like broken chains
Each step a weight of hidden pain
I built my throne from guilt and lies
And turned away from mercy's eyes

But through the ruin of my pride
I felt Your presence by my side

No fire falling from above
Just quiet echoes of Your love

When I could no longer stand
You reached out Your hand
And called me home again

When my faith fell apart
You opened Your heart
And called me home again

You called me home again
You called me home again

I ran from the light
I buried the truth
But grace found me
Before I found You

I fell to my knees
With nothing to claim
Still heaven spoke softly
And called me by name

When I could no longer stand
You reached out Your hand
And called my name again

When the night filled my chest
You gave my soul rest
And called my name again

Through the dust and the flame
Through the guilt and the shame
You called my name again

You called my name again
You called my name again

And in the quiet of the rain
I heard You say my name again
