Too Much

The son is overwhelmed by his Father's unconditional love and questions whether he deserves it.  Is it too much?

TOO MUCH

Father, I don't deserve this
My brother is right - I should be shunned.
Is there room in the servants quarters?
I'll stay there - it is good enough.

You don't know what I've said,
Where I've been, What I've done.
I am not good enough to come into your home.
I don't deserve this, it is too much.

I am not worthy,  not even close.
I have disgraced you, even cursed you.
I walked away from you.  I left you.
You don't know, my mistakes are many.

Father, you are too good and I am nothing.
I don't deserve this lavish love.
I don't deserve your forgiveness.
I don't know if I can accept it,
But I will.
