"Welcome To The Family" lyrics

It doesn't matter which side of the tracks you came from
This is a song for everyone
It doesn't matter if you think you're too far gone
You know you can come back home

Love is throwin' a reunion
Invitin' me and you in
To the party, party
Mercy's opened up the door
So what you waitin' for?
Let's get it started

Welcome to freedom, forgiveness
Redemption, and a hope unendin'
Where love breaks every boundary
And we're standing all together, singing
Jesus is our common ground
And heaven is reachin' out
Sayin', "Welcome to the family" (family)
Welcome to the family (family)

It doesn't matter what you have done before
Nobody's keepin' score, no
Don't need to stay on the outside lookin' in
Join in the celebration

Love is throwin' a reunion
Invitin' me and you in
To the party, party
Mercy's opened up the door
So what you waitin' for?
Let's get it started

Welcome to freedom, forgiveness
Redemption, and a hope unendin'
Where love breaks every boundary
And we're standing all together, singing
Jesus is our common ground
And heaven is reachin' out
Sayin', "Welcome to the family" (family)
Welcome to the family (family)

Lay down your troubles
Come on inside
Dance in the light
Lift up your voices
Nothin' to hide
Hands to the sky
Brothers and sisters
Walk out the grave
Shake off the chains
His arms are open
He's givin' you a new name

And it's freedom, forgiveness
Redemption, a hope unendin'
'Cause love breaks every boundary
And we're standing all together, singin'

Welcome to freedom, forgiveness
Redemption, a hope unendin'
Where love breaks every boundary
And we're standing all together, singing
Jesus is our common ground
And heaven is reachin' out
Sayin', "Welcome to the family" (family)
Welcome to the family (family)
Oh, welcome to the family (family)
Welcome to the family (family)
Welcome to the family
