Welcome Home

Welcome home my child, I've been waiting for you
I have watched you below and have seen you blue
I know what the world as a whole did to you
now with open arms, I welcome you.

Into loving arms and into the fold
out of the darkness and out of the cold,
new life here is offered, where love abounds
listen to the trumpets and heavenly sounds.

I saw you there sick and abused, I felt all your pain
I'm letting you know now, it wasn't in vain,
for there was a purpose, there was a reason
for any pain or grief felt, for the short season.

I needed a new angel, new eyes to see
all of the glories that are here with me,
through perseverance and grace you are now here
no more sadness and pain, no more reason to fear.

Doves of hope and peace also greet you

those left behind, I will give peace too,

their tears I will dry, their hearts I will mend

if they come to me, salvation I'll send.

 

You are home now dear child, a place of peace

walk with me now and we will assemble for the feast,

you will never be lonely now, never a fear

you are home now dear child, you are home you are here.
