Suppertime

Many years ago in days of childhood

I used to play till evenin' shadows come

Then windin' down an old familiar pathway

I heard my mother call at set of sunCome home, come home it's suppertime

The shadows lengthen fast

Come home, come home it's suppertime

We're going home at lastIn visions now I see her standin' yonder

her familiar voice I hear once more

She said the banquet table's ready up in Heaven

Its suppertime upon the golden shoreCome home, come home its suppertime

The shadows lengthen fast

Come home, come home its suppertime

We're going home at last

Child you're going home at last
