I Must Go Home
by Jim Schafer, (©2020 James E. Schafer, all rights reserved)
I’ll be leaving in a while
I won’t be with you anymore
It’s time for me to go away
God is calling at the door
I’d like to spend more time with you
I hate leaving you alone
With all the things there are to do
But it’s time I must go home
CHORUS:
It’s time I must go home
God is calling me away
The Book says this time is my own
Grace shows me the way
Jesus waits upon the hill
I must go to him alone
I believe that it’s God’s will
That it’s time I must go home
I so love sharing time with you
With you I’ve never been afraid
We did God’s work the way it came
I love the life we two have made
But now I’m leaving you behind
To bear the burden on your own
I’ve done all that I’ve time to do
And it’s time I must go home
CHORUS:
After I have gone from you
When your bitter tears run dry
And you don’t know what is true
Know our love will never die
God has blessed our wedding vows
To show he made our love His own
Our love endures as He allows
Even though I must go home
CHORUS:
JS - August, 2020
