Many years ago in days of childhood I used to play till evening SHADOWS CAME
|
THEN winding down AN old familiar pathway I hear my mother call at setting sun
|
Come home come home it's suppertime the shadows lengthen fast
|
Come home come home it's suppertime we're going home at last
|
THROUGH THE DISTANT CLOUDS I SEE MY MOTHER
|
HER FACE IS SHINING BRIGHT, WITH TENDER LOVE
|
SHE'S GONE UP IN HEAVEN, WITH HER MAKER
|
AND I CAN STILL HEAR HER VOICE, FROM UP ABOVE
|
(AND SHE SAID)
|
Come home come home it's suppertime the shadows lengthen fast
|
Come home come home it's suppertime we're going home at last
|
