Many years ago in days of childhood
I used to play 'til evenin' shadows come
Then windin' down an old familiar pathway
I heard my mother call at set of sun
Come home, come home, it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home, it's suppertime
We're going home at last
In visions now I see her standin' yonder
Her familiar voice, I hear once more
She said the banquet table's ready up in Heaven
It's suppertime upon the golden shore
Come home, come home, it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home, it's suppertime
We're going home at last
Child, you're going home at last
