[Verse 1: Choir]
I remember prayers I prayed
I remember ways You made
I remember storms You pulled me through
But somewhere, life got hard for me
Your hand, I could no longer see
And honestly, I felt let down by You

[Pre-Chorus: Choir]
Oh, the price of living my own life
Please tell me, is there room for me with You?

[Chorus: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
Take me back to the first time I said, "I love You"
When You stole my heart and made me born again
I let winds blow me away
But I'm back at Your door today
Sin stole the key, but love said, "Welcome in" (Aren't you glad that door is always open? Listen)

[Verse 2: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
I remember calling You (With tears)
With tears asking, "God, what do I do?"
Afraid to win, each day prepared to lose (But I must confess, it was)

[Pre-Chorus: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
It's my mistake, letting pain push me away (Letting pain push me away)
Please tell me, is there still room for me with You? (God, with me and You, I just wanna know)

[Chorus: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
Take me back to the first time I said, "I love You" (When You stole my heart)
When You stole my heart and made me born again (I was guilty, it was me)
I let winds blow me away (But I'm back now)
But I'm back at Your door today (Sin stole the key)
Sin stole the key, but love said, "Welcome in" (But love said, "Welcome in")
Take me back to when I couldn't live without You (Yeah, yeah, it was a love affair)
Was a love affair I knew would never end (See, I knew)
I let winds blow me away (I let winds blow me away)
But I'm back at Your door today (Sin stole the key)
Sin stole the key (But love), but love said, "Welcome in" (I just wanna say it again)
Sin stole the key, but love said, "Welcome" (It says, "Welcome")

[Post-Chorus: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
Home, come back home
It's time to bring Your soul out from the cold (Say)

[Chorus: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
Take me back to the first time I said, "I love You" (Anybody wanna go back?)
When You stole my heart and made me born again
I let winds blow me away (But I'm back now)
But I'm back at Your door today (Sin stole the key)
Sin stole the key, but love said, "Welcome in" (Welcome, welcome, woo)
Take me back to when I couldn't live without You
Was a love affair I knew would never end
I let winds blow me away (But I'm back now)
But I'm back at Your door today
Sin stole the key (But the good news)
There's still room for me (You've been waiting for me)
You've been waiting for me to tell me, "Welcome in"

[Outro: Choir, Kirk Franklin]
Living in the cold can't be easy
Welcome in (Oh)
It's been too long, so come back home (Oh)
Living in the cold can't be easy
Welcome in (Oh)
It's been too long, oh (Somebody's heart needs to hear this, say)
Don't delay, you're one heartache away (God said)
Welcome in (Oh)
It's been too long (Even though it's been so long since I've been gone)
You've been waiting for me to tell me, "Welcome in"
