Lyrics

with great
anticipation
he waited
at the door
his only son was due
from overseas

for months now
he'd been waitin'
since he'd gone off
to war
and his eyes
were filled
with tears
of great relief

welcome home son
his loving arms
held open
and his heart
so full of love

welcome home son
i been prayin'
and been hopin'
and i never did
give up

i knew that
you'd return to me
the place
where you were
meant to be
rest now
for you've been gone
too long

i heard him say
as they embraced
i've waited so long
for this day my son
my very own
welcome home

but a dreary rain
was fallin'
while another
soldier fell
and a mother
wakes up crying
in the night

she thought
she'd heard
him callin'
in that moment
she could tell
her only son
had passed
into the light

welcome home son
his loving arms
held open
and his heart
so full of love

welcome home son
as jesus
stood there glowing
their hands
reached out
and touched

i knew that
you'd return to me
the place
that you were
meant to be
rest now
for you've been gone
too long

as they embraced
i heard him say
i've waited so long
for this day my son
my very own
welcome home

i think
of all
the families
that have lost
a darlin' one

and i think
how jesus died
for all our sins

and i think
how much
god loved us

to send
his only son
to live and die
and then
to live again

welcome home son
i hear god sayin'
when they nailed
christ to the cross
that day

welcome home son
and when he sent
his angels
to roll
that stone away

i knew that
you'd return to me
the place
where you were
meant to be
rest now
for you've been gone
too long

i hear god say
as they embrace
i've waited so long
for this day
well done
my faithful son
welcome home

welcome home
i hope to hear
god saying
when it's
my time to go

welcome home
while the
angel band
is playin'
and god comes
to claim my soul

the angels
will be singin'
and joy bells
will be ringin'
rejoicing
i'll shout and
sing along

when there
are no more
wars to fight
and we're
all children
of the light

when the father
and the son
say welcome home
welcome home
welcome home
welcome
home
