This song is my personal connection to the story of the prodigal. It's repeated i all of us, to some degree, at some point. It is an utterly hopeless feeling to be surrounded by people, and sometimes even friends, and still feel totally alone. You never feel like you're where you're supposed to be until you come home.
A pseudo-duet of a person's heart-cry for God as God's own affirming call interplays in creating a musical tension. A beautiful piece that captures the tension that we all experience in our Christian lives when we are hurting so much that we think that God doesn't hear our prayers, yet he calls us to a better future that he has prepared for us.
