Heavenly Father, it's me, your prodigal son.
Not my will, but yours be done.
But have mercy on me, I beg of you please.
I pray to you, Jesus, on bending knees.
I never should have left my wife you gave.
My regret will follow me to my grave.
In spite of all the wrong I do.
She gave me all the love she knew.
When I woke up from my deep sleep.
You'd given life to my rib, so we could "sow and reap."
You brought her to me, my beloved wife.
In her I found the true meaning of life.

Author Notes
MEANING OF LIFE: Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; She shall be called woman because she was taken out of man. Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh, be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it.
