Even When Friends Forsake

Even When Friends Forsake
Lyrics by Fabian Ng

A little boy of sorrow, ran away from the arms of love,
Into this foolish world, and it left him drained.
Yet he still runs away, time and time again,
Never ending sorrow, everlasting pain.

What must it take to bring him back to this house again?
Will he be lost in his pain and be buried in his shame?
The little child so lost and weary, yet his earthly pride,
Carries him through the day even when friends forsake.

That little lad of sorrow, wandering through the streets,
Prodigal expenditures on earthly beings, false friends fall asleep.
Yet one little day it was over, and his world disappeared,
Left him with a needle and thread, a broken heart to mend

What must it take to bring him back to this house again?
Will he be lost in his pain and be buried in his shame?
The little child so lost and weary, yet his earthly pride,
Carries him through the day even when friends forsake.

Bridge:
He wanders lost, day by day, night by night,
He fed the swines of misery, will he go down in history,
As a lad who ran away from the arms of love?
When friends forsake.

The little man of sorrow, ran from freedom to captivity,
Perhaps he'd learnt his lesson, now he's on road way home,
Out of the door stepped his Father, with arms open wide,
Embracing his dear child, now back at his side,

And he said,

"I'm just so happy that now you're back in this house again.
Home is where the pain is lost and buried is the shame.
Oh little child so lost and weary, welcome back tonight,
I'll be with you in the day even when friends forsake."

WARNING!!! it's superb RAW. so pls beware.

Lord, i'm like that foolish little boy. Oh. When will i be back in your house again? When will i let myself return home to you? This battle is tiring. Prob is i still havent learnt my lesson. I'm afraid that this little lost and weary child here will continue to head downhill instead of back up to you.
