There is a famous song that contains the following lyrics:
"I'm coming home, I'm coming home, tell the world I'm coming home, let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday and though my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes, I'm coming home, I'm coming home, tell the world I'm coming home"
I've always liked the imagery of this song, it seems like it has some spiritual applications, but there are flaws in the song. The song makes it sound like it's all about me, I'm the one doing it, but thats not the truth. We as humans like to think its all about us, we like to think that we have something to do with the getting there part of it, but we don't. The bible speaks pretty strongly about this. It says:
“This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty." Zachariah 4:6
There are other verses, they aren't coming to me right now. Minus that little part, I really love the imagery of the song. Seems like a song that God could sing, but with the following changes:
"You're coming home, You're coming home, tell the world you're coming home, let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday and though my kingdom awaits and I've forgiven your mistakes, you're coming home, you're coming home, tell the world you're coming home"
