Welcome Home

Welcome to the duality of reality
Where sunshine and rain coexist to grow
Welcome smiles, tears, dreams, and fears
Dreaming of Heaven while living in an imperfect world
Exiles and immigrants, welcome home

(Every sunrise knows the reason it's there)
(To light up the world, for You)
(Created things that fly through the air)
(Can feel Your return is soon)
(The galaxies, they know the countdown is near)
(When old things become, they become brand new)

(I feel time moving faster)
(The earth cries for that beautiful day)
(Please rescue my soul)
(This world's not my home)
(I know a better place)

(Imagine the sound when we all get to heaven)
(Each nation will sing in harmony) Hallelujah
(All battles will cease when we're finally together)
(In the beautiful city of redeemed)
Truth is (I never felt welcomed or like I belonged)
(How great it is to finally hear)

(Welcome home!)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(Glad I'm home)
(Welcome home!)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(So glad I'm home)
Come on

(The horizon will someday disappear)
(Only to make room for You)
(And Your joy will erase every fear)
('Cause just to get here)
(You don't know what I've been through)

Yes, sir
And every day it seems (I feel time moving faster)
Come on
(The earth cries for that beautiful day)
My heart is homesick
(Please rescue my soul)
(This world's not my home)
(I know a better place)

(Imagine the sound when we all get to Heaven)
(Each nation will sing in harmony) I can only imagine
(All battles will cease when we're finally together)
(In the beautiful city of redeemed)
To be honest
(I never felt welcomed) yes (or like I belonged) yes
How great it is to finally hear

(Welcome home!)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(Glad I'm home) can you say iy again?
(Welcome home!)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(So glad I'm home)

Listen
(A million (a million, million nights) nights)
(We have searched (we have searched) the skies (searched the sky))
(For the answers why)
(Do we long for something more?) When time's no more

Imagine the sound when we all get to Heaven
(Each nation will sing in harmony)
No more tears
(All battles will cease when we're finally together) no more sorrow
In the beautiful city of redeemed
Since I took my first breath
(I never felt welcomed or like I belonged)
(How great it is to finally hear) come on!

(Welcome home)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(Glad I'm home)
(Welcome home)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(So glad I'm home)

Some day you'll say, ("Welcome home!")
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(Glad I'm home)
Yes (welcome home!)
(I'm home)
(Feels like home)
(So glad I'm home)

Welcome home
(No more violence, no more dying)
(No more hate, no more lying)
(No more political manipulation)
(Or financial disparities to weaker nations) welcome home

(No more children being raised in poverty)
(Or the church taking more than what they really need)
(No more guns, no more abuse of power)
(No more disease, feels like you're losing someone every hour)

(Tired of running, tired of fighting, tired of tryna fit in)
(Tired of looking at my neighbor, tell me, when will it all end?) Welcome home
(Tell me, how much longer 'til You come and get me?)
(I'm breaking, self-medicating leaves me empty) welcome home

(They don't love You, they don't want You, they no longer trust You)
(Please don't leave me, I've lost everything, I have nothing left but You)
(Brother 'gainst brother, in the streets we killing each other)
(Where's your father? Forgiving the sins of your mother)

(See I'm desperate, see me crying, come take this cross away)
(Every second minute hour 'til You say)
"Welcome home"
