Welcome in! take my hand

Welcome in! take my hand
Welcome in! take my hand
Let us walk no more and talk no more as strangers in this land,
As we meet here in the cause way of His love and your desire
Let’s bring the night to fire, Welcome in!
Never before and never, ever again will these waters part
For any woman, child or natural man, Quite like you
Welcome in! take my hand
Say ‘Hello’ to who you know and who you don’t and who you can
We’ll give promise to your springtimes and beginnings to your ends.
We’ll try not to be cautious, we’ll be friends.
Welcome in! take a stand
As the river of His love turns red to heal you up again.
Learn the dove’s song as she coos it, we’ve come too far now to lose it.
But not too far to re-choose it, Welcome in!
Welcome in! take my hand
I will listen if the child is still the father to a man
As the waters of our life time flow on over one another,
I baptize you as my brother, Welcome in!

Hello! I was wondering if you had sheet music for this song. We sang it at our parochial school in Canada back in the 1970's. I can't seem to locate it anywhere, and the words are perfect for our new church! I remember the melody and can write the notes out if necessary, but thought I'd try contacting you first. Thank you!
