Welcome Home

Lay down this burden that you bear.
Chimes are calling from the songs of heaven's choir.
Sleep now in the shadow of comfort.
Angel's sing, "Welcome home."

Well done, good and faithful servant.
The Savior calls you unto his heavenly rest.
Weep not, for the time of sorrow is past.
Come and worship the King of kings.

Dance now as he wipes your tears away.
Choral anthems to his majesty are raised.
Lift your voice in glorious songs of praise.
The Lamb of God is on the throne!

Gather beside the crystal tide
With angels singing, "Holy is the Lamb!"
Join now the song of the redeemed:
"The Lamb who was slain is King of kings!"
