Ruben Studdard
Restoration
Restore me
Restore to me the joy
(repeat 1x)
This is my prayer today yeah

(verse 1)
It reminds me of the prodigal son
After his righteous livin
All the evil he had done
Yet when he returned his father received him home
Gave him a ring of gold put him on a robe
Killed the fatted calf gave him somethin he never ever had
Restoration

(chorus)
Restoration has finally come
Been restored back to my place in God
(repeat 1x)
What would i know about being restored if i never lost my place
What would i know about his mercy if i hadn't got out of grace it sort of reminds me of the
Prodigal son
After his righteous livin
All the evil he had done
Yet when he returned his father received him home
Gave him a ring of gold put him on a robe
Killed the fatted calf gave him somethin he never ever had
Restoration
(chorus)

(bridge)
Restore the joy of my salvation
Give me back my consecration
Restore the life that i once knew
I'm giving my life back to you

And we'd just like to say restore me restore the joy
Restore me restore the joy
(repeat 3x)
I'm restored and i'm glad about it
(repeat 1x)
I'm renewed and i'm glad about it
(repeat 1x)
I'm glad about it
(repeat 3x)
I'll shout about it
(repeat 1x)
