Lord, Take Me Back Poem by Mark Nyamekye Boadi

Lord, Take Me Back



I call on You again
Am the lamb who lost his way
Out of the wilderness into the barn
I've come to feed on hay

I went into the forest
Because I listened to what is on the outside
Which led me into a different habitat
And forgot that You were my only Guide

I left for my own adventure
But all I have in hand is a plaque
There is only one thing I have written
Lord, take me back

I did not listen to Your word
And went on my own
I thought I knew what was right
But I am still not grown

Lord reach out Your hand to me
For where I stand begins to crack
And I have no hiding place
So please take me back

Do not turn your face from me
And let me not incur your wrath
Show me the light
And lead me in a new path

Father, hear me when I pray
I ask for revival and grace
Answer me when I call
And take me into your hiding place

Do not turn me away
Else my foes rejoice
Cleanse me from my sins
For You are my only choice

Restore my soul
For they plan to attack
Deliver me from them
Lord, take me back

Lord, take me back
So that these sufferings would be over

Lord, take me back
For without you, vain builds a builder

Lord, take me back
You are my only keeper

Lord, take me back
This is my prayer for forgiveness and favor
