And he rose up

Composer: D. C.

(Part 1)

And he rose up and came to his own father.

But while he was still a long

long way off

His father saw him and was moved with compassion

And he ran and fell on his neck

fell on his neck

And kissed him

and he kissed him affectionately.

(Part 2)

Bring out quickly the best robe

And put it on him

and put a ring on his hand

And sandals on his feet. And bring the fattened calf;

Slaughter it

and let us eat and be merry. This son of mine

Was dead and lives again; was lost but found.
