I Am Going Home

I am Going Home I hear you calling thy name I look forward to one you shall claim My eyes once flowed tears And I was over whelmed with fear Until I let the Lord in my door Then I felt love like none before Lord lead the way and I shall follow While you relieve thy pain and sorrow You came and showed the way And to gather the ones gone astray Without You would be another lost day You have carried me over the mountains While quenching my thirst with your fountain You have been there by my side Even when I felt I was being pulled away by the tide I look forward to the promised land Where the Godly will be As numerous as the grains of sand I am eager to see your face To be fulfilled with your love and grace To be a winner in the race I am heading to my home For here I do not belong You say my child you have endured to the end Now you shall come on in If it shall be tonight I am ready to unite
