CHORUS
Welcome! Welcome! Welcome to the Hood!
You always kept your promise, just because you said you would.
No matter the situation, you tried the best you could.
You trusted in Jesus just because He said you should.
Welcome! Welcome! Welcome to the Hood!
The time you spent upon the earth wasn't focused on yourself,
You were always giving things away, not keepin' 'em on your shelf.
Food to the hungry, drink to those with thirst.
Now you live in heaven, where the last become the first!
CHORUS
You met the needs of others, ignoring your own.
Witnessed to the down and out that they were not alone.
You never knew a stranger, helping anyone who'd ask.
You were a willing servant, regardless of the task.
CHORUS
We're all celebrating! You're now in Heaven's crew!
Check out this mansion Jesus built for you!
We're glad that you could join us for the rest of your days,
to worship God Almighty who's worthy of our praise!
CHORUS
