As you may have gathered from some of my blog posts this week, I’ve been thinking a lot about my relationships with those in my family who sadly are no longer here, particularly my Mum. I’ve been listening to a lot of music this week too and came across the following song by Michael W Smith, which really summed up the day I said my final farewell to my Mum just a few months ago.
Welcome Home by Michael W Smith
I can’t believe that I’m here
Having to say goodbye.
And I can barely see you through
These tears I cry.
I close my eyes.
[Chorus]
I can hear the sound
As angels gather ’round
Saying this is where you belong
Welcome Home!
There are the days that my heart aches
wishing you were here.
But I know where you are
The hurt and the pain disappear.
There’s no more tears.
[Chorus]
Welcome Home!
[Chorus]
What a lovely sound
Angels all around
Saying this is where you belong
Welcome Home!
Welcome Home!
Welcome Home!
