Going Home

 

I have climbed the mountain, I have crossed the stream,

I have watched the river flow into a peaceful dream

 

Now I’m going home, now I’m going home

Now I’m going home, one last time

 

I have heard the song of love and heard the song of peace

I have heard the songs of war and prayed that they would cease

 

I have seen rich man in his castle estate

I have seen the poor man standing at the gate

 

I have heard the people weep, I’ve heard the people cry

I have heard the songs of hope helping them to fly

 

I have watched the sky turn black I’ve watched it turn to blue

I have seen the sunshine when clouds obscured the view

 

I have planted seeds of life I have reaped and I have sown

I have planted trees of hope on my journey home

 

I have watched my children stand and I've seen my children fall

I have seen them stumble I've seen them stand tall

 

I have walked and I have crawled all my journey through

Now it’s time for me to make it back home with you
