Welcome Home

You journeyed far
from home.
You were lost
but now found.
Let My loving hands
embrace you.

So proud of yourself
you went off alone.
Don’t you know
I love you?
Don’t you know
I care for you?

Welcome home.
Come put on My robe.
Sit down with Me.
Share My fatted calf.
Will you come in
and come to Me?

You worked in your field
without joy or love.
Don’t you know
I love you?
Don’t you know
I care for you?

Welcome your brother
home from foreign land.
Sit down with us.
Share My fatted calf.
Will you come in
and come to Me?
(Luke 15:11-32)

Do you know He loves you?
Will you come in and join us?
