Going Home

I'm going home to meet my Maker

I'm going home to meet his son

To the land of milk and honey

Where there's no setting sun

Live in a mansion

Just beyond the crystal sea

Going home to meet my Maker

And Christ who died for me

When my life on Earth is over

And my deeds on earth are done

Going home to meet my Maker

Going home to meet the King

Now I could search the whole world over

No place would I rather be

Then home with my Maker

And Christ who died for me
