Terry White - Homecoming

Lord, I confess that I've
been a criminal
I've stolen Your breath
and sang my own song
And Lord, I confess that
I'm far from innocent
These shackles I wear, I
bought on my own
CHORUS 1
These scarlet sins had a
crimson cost
You nailed my debt to
that old rugged cross
An empty slate, at the
empty grave
Thank God that stone was
rolled away
Lord, I confess I've been
the prodigal
Made for Your house, but I
walked my own roads
Then Jesus came
He tore down my prison walls
Death came to life when He
called me by name
CHORUS 2 (x2)
These scarlet sins had a
crimson cost
You nailed my debt to
that old rugged cross
An empty slate, at the
empty grave
Thank God that stone was
rolled
These scarlet sins had a
crimson cost
You nailed my debt to
that old rugged cross
An empty slate, at the
empty grave
Thank God that stone was
rolled away
BRIDGE
I see bright crimson
robes draped over the
ashes
A wide, open tomb where
there should be a casket
The children are singing,
and dancing, and
laughing
The Father is welcoming
This is our homecoming
Roses in bloom pushed up
from the embers
Rivers of tears flow from
good times remembered
Families are singing, and
dancing, and laughing
The Father is welcoming
This is our homecoming
Heaven joins in with a
glorious sound
And the great cloud of
witnesses all gather round
Cause the ones that were
lost are finally found
The Father is welcoming
This is our homecoming
CHORUS 2
ENDING x2
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
The Father is welcoming
This is our homecoming
