About 11 years ago, I wrote a short chorus inviting sinners to return to God. I wrote it from God's perspective, so it felt like a person plea for repentance. I recorded my original idea, then forgot about the project. A week or two ago, I found the original work and finished writing Return to Me, O Sinner. I pray it will encourage you to turn to God and find freedom.
Return to Me, O Sinner
Verse 1:
Return to me, O Sinner. Leave behind your sin.
I will pardon. I will love. My anger melt away.
Return to me, O Sinner. Let new life begin.
I will cleanse you. You will sing. Your guilt all washed away.
Chorus
You have sinned. You have fallen.
O, confess it. Receive my grace.
Verse 2:
Return to me, O Sinner. Escape the trap you’re in.
I will free you. I will heal. Your tears I’ll wipe away.
Return to me, O Sinner. Walk in my ways again. I will lead you. You will sing. Your heart won’t go astray.
