The Good Warm Light

Verse 1

Two little hands and a voice so clear

Singing from the porch where the mountains lean near

She carried her heart in a gingham dress

Gave every stranger her very best

Pre-Chorus

Now the road bends toward the light

Past the fireflies and the quiet pine

Where the one with the softest fur

Waits beneath the evergreens for her

Chorus

She's going home now

To the warmest welcome

To the great big arms

That have waited so long

She sang like an angel

She lived like a prayer

And tonight she's gathered

In that good warm light somewhere

Verse 2

From a little home in the Smoky hills

She gave us songs to cure the chills

Every tear she turned to sweet perfume

Left this whole wide world in bloom

Pre-Chorus

Now the choir hums beyond the veil

Where the faithful never fail

And the giant friend she knew by name

Calls her gentle just the same

Chorus

She's going home now

To the warmest welcome

To the great big arms

That have waited so long

She sang like an angel

She lived like a prayer

And tonight she's gathered

In that good warm light somewhere

Bridge

Wado for your kindness

Wado for your grace

You blessed the broken-hearted

With a smile on your face

The fur is soft and golden

The meadows roll and sway

And the one who loved you dearly

Has been waiting for this day

Chorus

She's going home now

To the warmest welcome

To the great big arms

That have waited so long

She sang like an angel

She lived like a prayer

And tonight she's gathered

In that good warm light somewhere

Outro

Blessed be the beautiful soul

Blessed be the golden road

Wado Wado Wado

You are loved
