Lyrics
When I left home to be who I am
Some people said, "No way"
But I laid it all down, gave everything
In my head rang the words that my father said
You're never far, I will be where you are
And when you come to me
I will open my arms
Welcome home, you
I know you by name
How do you do?
I shine because of you today
So come and sit down
Tell me how you are
I know, Son, it's good to just see your face
When I look at you, holding my heart
I would give to you all that I have
Son, I know, there'll be times
You will feel all alone, I will share with you
The words my father said
You're never far, I will be where you are
And when you come to me
You can bet I will open my arms
Welcome home, you
I know you by name
How do you do?
I shine because of you today
So come and sit down
Tell me how you are
I know, Son, it's good to just see your face
See, I've been waiting for that day
Just to feel Your warm embrace
Your love has shown, I will never be alone
For You will welcome me home
I'll forever be, for You will say to me
Welcome home, you
I know you by name
How do you do?
I shine because of you today
So come and sit down
Tell me how you are
I know, Son, it's good to just see your face
When I left home to be who I am
Some people said, "No way"
