Older Son

All these years I've worked this land And every night I'm fed It all seems pretty good But this land is all I've ever known So I'll just stay real close And try not to go out too far from here But I've gotta be real with the way that I feel And it's more like a slave than a son I've been doing the work but I'm not really sure If You're proud of the things that I've done I've been home all my life but I've never felt more Like a stranger with no place to rest But I hope when You come and invite me inside I still have the faith to say yes And I hope for praise from time to time But I guess that's just my pride Tryin' to make myself seen But I've gotta be real with the way that I feel And it's more like a slave than a son I've been doing the work but I'm not really sure If You're proud of the things that I've done I've been home all my life but I've never felt more Like a stranger with no place to rest But I hope when You come and invite me inside I still have the faith to say yes Even when my heart don't feel so sure You still give me everything that's Yours But I've gotta be real with the way that I feel And it's more like a slave than a son I've been doing the work but I'm not really sure If You're proud of the things that I've done I've been home all my life but I've never felt more Like a stranger with no place to rest But I hope when You come and invite me inside I still have the faith to say yes God when You come and invite me inside Give me the faith to say yes
