I HAVE returned like the Prodigal Son

To Bethel Church on Harbour Road.

The December night is dark and chilly

But Matt’s sermon warms my soul

Warning that the devil is everywhere

And he is a murderer and a thief

But can be beaten by Christian belief.

It is gratifying to be welcomed back

After two years absence from this fine church

Timeless Vernon still playing the piano

And when my breath blows into the night air

It is better than any chemical high

And I pray that long after I’ve gone

Sunday services here will carry on.
