The day I left your side my Lord,
To set our people free,
You thought I had deserted you,
You turned your back on me,
But I will always love you Lord,
And hope one day you’ll see?
The reasons why I did it,
And return your love to me,
I sat with you ten thousand years,
To watch our people grow,
We saw them failing helplessly,
So lord I had to go,
To bring to them some order,
And something to believe,
But when I left your side my Lord,
How did I know you’d grieve?
I taught them to believe in you,
Gave hope, and gave them laughter,
I taught them love, compassion,
And belief in the hereafter,
And what was my reward for this,
Although I asked for none,
They turned their backs on me, like you,
And so my time has come,
At least their futures promising,
I’m not so sure of mine,
If you could give me back your love,
My future will be fine,
I know this isn’t home for me,
And here I cannot dwell,
Please let me come back home to you,
Your loving Gabriel.
