Verse 1
Consumed by a sadness, you are looking away,
Remembering what you had yesterday.
Even though it seemed so lovely at first,
You're experiencing now how much it hurts,
Wond'ring if God can make you smile,
Or do you think that you're not worth the while?

Chorus
It's never too late to admit you were wrong,
There's never a wait that could ever be too long,
There isn't a Heaven that is too far above,
And there isn't a child that doesn't need love.

Refrain: Hey

Verse 2
As you write me with tears on your cheeks,
Your heart is hurt because you know you're weak.
The once strong man you were has faded to dust,
And now you cry because you know you must,
As you begin to tell me why
Your sorrowed sin has grown wings to fly.

Repeat Chorus

Repeat Refrain

Bridge
Oh, hold God's hand of forgiveness, please.
Don't You know that
Heaven loves to see a man on his knees.

Repeat Chorus three times
