Little Lamb

I can hear your voice in the distance
 But I can't see your face
 When can I be with you?
 I miss your secure embrace.

Heavenly Father, you never left me
 Even while I was running away.
 You were always near me
 In sorrow, joy, and my pain.
 

When can I tell you
 All the secrets I hide in my heart?
 The deepest of my hopes and fears
 And ask forgiveness for a brand new start.
 

So even at this hour as I am in the valley
 Come up higher I can hear you say,
 And then the sound so familiar,
 Your lips call out my name.
 

My knees are weak, my face I hide,
 Then you lift up my head and you begin to smile.
 This lost sheep I have now found,
 And for you alone I walked the extra mile.
 

You are my Beloved, My lamb I adore
 Why would you stray or say your alone
 Always will I be with you, you can be assured
 My child, you are the one my heart beats for.
