lyrics

The best day

I was hanging out on 19th and Anaheim.
I looked up to the sun going down.
It was strangely beautiful for Los Angeles.
When I turned around there was my Dad.
He asked me if I still wanted to live.

It was the longest drive.

I asked them to have no one around.
Shame has my heart by the throat.
I could not walk in my own house.
My brother came out with me and cried.

All I could do was cry.

Lord, you left the ninety-nine to find me. Lord, you laid me on your neck rejoicing.

My family gathered around me to pray.
Isaiah’s book is what was read.
I gathered myself and crawled into bed.
Love suffered long but had its way.

I had the best sleep.

Lord, you laid me on your neck rejoicing.
Lord, you left the ninety-nine to find me.

It was the best day.
