Welcome into the house
where we have bread to eat
and room at the table

Welcome into the house
where we sit down to meet
with strangers and neighbours

Welcome into the house

Come away, come away in
Come away, come away in
The storm it is rising
but we'll hold back the wind
Come away, come away in

Welcome into the house
where there's an open door
and the fire is burning

Welcome into the house
where we can rest a while
from the world and its turning

Welcome into the house

Come away, come away in ...

All you sisters and brothers - come away in
All you fathers and brothers - come away in
All the widows lamenting - come away in
All the exiles dissenting - come away in
All the lost and forgotten - come away in
All the battered and broken - come away in
All the motherless children - come away in
We welcome you all into the house
