I first heard this song in the 80s. After realizing why the cross & the tomb were empty and accepting Jesus as my savior, the Bible & Christian music were all I wanted/needed. This song made me wonder if I was doing wrong by not returning to my parents Catholic upbringing. I never met or knew Jesus in catholicism as I did that morning when I accepted Him. I have occasionally visited those stained-glass buildings & I know Jesus is more alive than the spiritually dead priests who performed the masses. Thank you Father that I returned to You, the God of my father & mother but not the dead religion of catholicism. In Jesus' name I thank you.
Thanks you Holy Spirit for ministering to me with this song today at the office causing me to search for it. Indeed, the Spirit of the has backed this song
I have never grown tired of hearing this beautiful declaration in song by Charles Huagabrooks. Praying that those who once walked with the Lord will return to Him before it's too late. Blessings
1. I have returned to the God of my childhood To the same simple faith as a child I once knew. Like the prodigal son I longed for my loved ones For the comforts of home and the God I outgrew. CHORUS: I have returned to the God of my childhood, Bethlehem's Babe, the prophet's Messiah; He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity; Praise His Name, I have returned. 2. I have returned to the God of my Father With unfailing faith I'm a child of His heart; I just heard a shout from the angels in glory, Singing praise the Lord that child has come home.. CHORUS: I have returned to the God of my mother, I learned at her feet He's the Lily of the valley. He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity; Praise His Name, I have returned. 3. I have returned to the Yahweh of Judah, On my knees I did fall where walls once stood; The lesson I learned as I've worked my way homeward, The Savior of all is a comfort to man. CHORUS: I have returned to the God of my father, Creator of heav'n and earth, God of the universe. He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity; Praise His Name, I have returned. 4. I have returned to the Father of Abraham, The shepherd of Moses who called Him the great I Am; He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity; Praise His Name, I have returned. Oh Hallelujah I have returned.

1. I have returned to the God of my childhood
To the same simple faith as a child I once knew.
Like the prodigal son I longed for my loved ones
For the comforts of home and the God I outgrew.
CHORUS:
I have returned to the God of my childhood,
Bethlehem's Babe, the prophet's Messiah;
He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity;
Praise His Name, I have returned.
2. I have returned to the God of my Father
With unfailing faith I'm a child of His heart;
I just heard a shout from the angels in glory,
Singing praise the Lord that child has come home..
CHORUS:
I have returned to the God of my mother,
I learned at her feet He's the Lily of the valley.
He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity;
Praise His Name, I have returned.
3. I have returned to the Yahweh of Judah,
On my knees I did fall where walls once stood;
The lesson I learned as I've worked my way homeward,
The Savior of all is a comfort to man.
CHORUS:
I have returned to the God of my father,
Creator of heav'n and earth, God of the universe.
He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity;
Praise His Name, I have returned.
4. I have returned to the Father of Abraham,
The shepherd of Moses who called Him the great I Am;
He's Jesus to me, Eternal Deity;
Praise His Name, I have returned. Oh Hallelujah I have returned.
