Randy Stonehill - Coming Back Soon Lyrics

Morning steals the nightThe sun breaks through the rainA little girl is sleepingWhile I pack to meet my planeThen I kneel down by her bedAnd I kiss her sleepy headShe hugs me tightShe knows I'm going awayCHORUS:She says "tell me you're coming back soonNow don't forget meI want to be with youIf you'll tell me you're coming back soonThen while you're goneThe days won't seem so long"I watch my little girlAnd start to understandHow God looks down from heavenAnd we're children in His eyesEven though we're far apartHe left behind His heartLike a promise to return for us somedayCHORUS:I know sometimes she feels so lost without meThe world is such a big confusing placeAnd it's then I pray she'll do the things I taught herRemember right from wrongRemember daddy's faceI know I'm going homeAnd hunger for that dayJust like the Lord is waitingAnd He longs to hear us sayCHORUS
