From riches to rags
Lost all that I had
I was foolish, so foolish
Did things on my own
Thought I was grown
I was wrong
At my lowest point
I heard a voice
Calling me to come home
How can I return
Is that bridge burned
Am I wanted
But my Father was waiting on me
Said I was redeemed
Glad you're home
He embraced me
With open arms
Said the past is gone
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
So the father says to the son
He says
I'll restore the years
Wipe away the tears
You're still mine
I am yours
What was broken is healed
You have a place right here
You're still mine
I am yours
Welcome home
He says You belong
So hear the Father talking to us
He says
You belong here
You have a home here
Because my love never changed
Hope still remains you belong
You belong here
You have a home here
Because my love never changed
Hope still remains you belong
Welcome home
You belong here
You have a home here
Because my love never changed
Hope still remains you belong (Hear the Father saying to you, you belong)
You belong here (This is your home right here)
You have a home here (Because my love never changed)
Because my love never changed
Hope still remains you belong
Welcome home
You belong here (You have a home here)
You have a home here (Because my love never changed)
Because my love never changed
Hope still remains you belong (You need to hear the Father's heart He says you belong)
You belong here
You have a home here
Because my love never changed
Hope still remains you belong
Welcome home
Right here with me
You belong
You need to know I never changed
This is your home
(You belong)
Come on, come on
(Right here with You)
You belong
(You belong)
I still love you my child
(Right here with You)
You belong
