The Jewel ‎#5

5. Welcome Home

1 There is a realm where Jesus reigns,
A home of grace and love,
Where angels wait with sweetest strains
To greet the saints above.

Chorus:
They'll sing their welcome home to me,
They'll sing their welcome home to me;
The Angels will stand on the heavenly strand,
And sing their welcome home!
Welcome home! Welcome home!
The Angels will stand on the heavenly strand,
And sing their welcome home!

2 There sons of earth will join to bless
The precious Saviour's name,
Clothed in his perfect righteousness,
And saved from sin and shame. [Chorus]

3 Yet all, alas! will not be there,
For some will slight his grace,
Tho' now he calls, they do not care
To turn, and seek his face. [Chorus]

4 He speaks so kindly, "Come to me,
And I will give you rest."
The angels wait their melody,
To greet you with the best. [Chorus]
