You've heard it said before
There is an open door
But you don't see
How it could be for you.

You've been away so long
You think you don't belong
Yet at the gate
The Father waits for you

It's time to stand and walk on up
Sit at the table, drink the cup
You have been invited, you will be received
It doesn't matter where you've been
The Father loved you even then
You have been invited. Come on in.

You've come the long way home
Your journey's almost done
You went so far
And now you aren't the same

You hunger and you thirst
You wait in shame
He bids you come to Him
He calls your name.
