Hymn Lyrics Search - Name That Hymn

I am searching for the lyrics to the hymn Going Home"
I have a recording of it in my itunes by The Cathedral Quartet from the album A Farewell Celebration.

Help would be appreciated.

Going Home

Many times in my childhood we travelled so far,
By nightfall how weary I'd grown.
Father's arms would slip 'round me, he'd gently say,
"My son, we're going home."

Chorus:
Going home, I'm going home
There is nothing to hold me here.
I've caught a glimpse of that heavenly land.
Praise God! I am going home.

Now the twilight is fading and the day soon shall end.
I get homesick the farther I roam.
But my Father has led me each step of the way
And now I am going home.

(Repeat chorus)

Hope this helps!

Dear MountainMama:

Great help. Many thanks.

Do you have the poem that goes along with this about the boy that was on the train and ask the preacher to look out the window to see if it was okay for him to come home?

Friends, The song that is done in the background of the poen that you talking about is not "Going Home" which is a very beautiful song, but it is "Lord I'm coming home"

Would anyone have the music to Going Home? email is [email protected] thanks and may God Bless!! Dreama

The song about the preacher looking out the window is "The Apple Tree song"

hi everyone

i love this song amazing grace
