Ring And Robe (Welcome Home)

                  This may be a song that the captives can't yet sing
But if we sing long enough, they might join in with us
And this may be a dance that's too heavy for those chains
But if we dance long enough, well the prisons will open up, hey

This may be a shout that those fragile lungs can't bear
But if we shout long enough, oh, the walls might finally fall
And they may need some help to lift their hands up in the air
But we know that freedom's coming, so we'll sing it all the more

We're singing, oh-oh-oh
The redeemed now have a song
We'll sing it all day long
Until the rest come running home
And oh-oh-oh
All the broken, can you hear?
We'll shout it out forever
Can't wait till you make it here

Sing it out, say
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa-oh
Oh-oh-oh

This may be too daring of a prayer to pray out loud
But would You send those orphans home?
We've been waiting all day long
Oh, a ring and a robe is ready, we can see them coming now
Just like the prodigal, we're gonna meet them in the road

We're singing, oh-oh-oh
The redeemed now have a song
We'll sing it all day long
Until the rest come running home
And oh-oh-oh
All the broken, can you hear?
We'll shout it out forever
Can't wait till you make it here

Sing it out, say
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa-oh
Oh-oh-oh

Strongholds start to break
At the sound of our voices
At the sound of our praise
Mountains get out of our way
Can't you see us dancing?
There's no room for you to stay, no, no, no

Strongholds start to break
At the sound of our voices
At the sound of our praise
Mountains get out of our way
Can't you see us dancing?
There's no room for you to stay

I'm singing, oh-oh-oh
The redeemed now have a song
We'll sing it all day long
Until the rest come running home
Oh-oh-oh
All the broken, can you hear?
We'll shout it out forever
Can't wait till you make it here

Sing it out, say
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa-oh
Oh-oh-oh

Yeah, yeah
Oh, we can see them coming now
We can see them coming now
All the broken and weary
Yeah, He didn't leave you where He found you
Yeah, welcome home
He didn't leave you where He found you
Welcome home

Come on, let's welcome them right now, we say this
Welcome home
Yeah, if you're weary, and you're tired
Welcome home
You didn't go too far for Him to reach you, say (Welcome home)
He's got his hands on you, say welcome home (Welcome home)
If you're broken and tired, come on home
(Welcome home) The Lord is waiting with open arms, the Lord is open with open arms
(Welcome home) His love is sufficient, that means it's enough
His love is sufficient, that means it's enough
Just keep on running (Just keep on running home)

Just keep on coming, just keep on running
(Welcome home) My Father's arms are open, my Father's arms are open
(Welcome home) Keep on running, yeah, keep on running
Keep on running, keep on running
Keep on running, keep on running (Welcome home)
'Cause there's a ring and a robe, there's a ring and a robe
(Welcome home) Just keep on coming, just keep on running
There's a ring and a robe, there's a ring and a robe
(Welcome home) Don't get weary, it will do it
For if you seize it, you will reap
(Welcome home) You'll dig deeper, you can't give in
You'll stay right there, now come on in
(Welcome home) Welcome home
For the glory, say welcome home (Welcome home)
Oh, we're excited, we're excited
(Welcome home) Can you hear the church, can you hear the church?
(Welcome home) Come on in, come on in
Say it, say welcome home (Welcome home)

I wanna keep singing this, but for some of you, you have unsaved family members
Unsaved friends, loved ones that you know, maybe strangers that you even know
I believe that the Lord today is honoring what you're saying
And even if they're not ready, you're gonna get a phone call
I prophesy it today
Even if they're in the crack house, you're gonna get a phone call
I prophesy today, I prophesy today
That the broken is coming home, the weary is coming home
The depressed is coming home, the forgotten is coming home
Come on in, come on in, come

(Welcome home)
(Welcome home) If you're heavy-laden, too long, oh weary
The Father's arms are open, welcome home
(Welcome home) Welcome home, welcome home
You belong here, you belong here
(Welcome home) You belong, you belong
(Welcome home) Welcome home, welcome home, welcome home, welcome home
We've been waiting for you
We rejoice with Heaven
