Representative Text

1 Hear the promises of love,
Jesus will welcome me home,
Endless joy in heav’n above,
Jesus will welcome me home.

Refrain:
Jesus will welcome me home,
Jesus will welcome me home,
When the Father’s will is done,
Jesus will welcome me home.

2 I must watch and work and pray,
Jesus will welcome me home,
Ev’ry moment, day by day,
Jesus will welcome me home. [Refrain]

3 Come and join me as I go,
Jesus will welcome me home,
Trav’ling form this world of woe,
Jesus will welcome me home. [Refrain]

4 Crowns of joy He’ll give at last,
Jesus will welcome me home,
When life’s sorrows all are past,
Jesus will welcome me home. [Refrain]
