Homeward

I know where you want to go.
Your real home.
You’ve heard his voice.
It’s where you belong.

Seeing you now makes me cry.
Holding your hands.
Caressing your head.
I remember.

Oh, the journey we’ve been.
Hearing your voice.
Your silent presence.
Memories I keep.

Whenever He calls.
Your pain and frailty will be gone.
You’d see the most amazing sunrise.
The full glory of the Lord.

El Roi.
You have seen the God that sees you.
Your God, your savior.
And he calls you now.

And finally you’d be home
Back in the hands that made you.
And I’ll see you again.
When I cross the river.
