Come home come home it's suppertime the shadows lengthen fast
|
Come home come home it's suppertime we're going home at last
|
|
Many years ago in days of childhood I used to play when evening shadows come
|
Then winding down that old familiar pathway I heard my mother call at set of sun
|
Some of the fondest mem'ries of my childhood are woven around suppertime
|
When mother used to call from the backsteps of the old homeplace
|
Come on home Ferlin it's suppertime what I would give to hear that once more
|
But for me time has woven a realization of the truth that's even more thrilling
|
And that's when the call comes up from the portal of glory to come home
|
For it's suppertime when all of God's children shall gather around the table
|
With the Lord at the greatest suppertime of them all
|
Come home come home...
