Lyrics

Many years ago in days of childhood
I used to play till evening shadows come
Then winding down an old familiar pathway
I'd hear my mother call at set of sun
Come home, come home, it's supper time
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home, it's supper time
We're going home at last
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood
Were awoken 'round supper time
When my mother used to call from the back steps
Of the old homeplace
"Come on home now son, it's supper time"
Ah gee, how I'd love to hear that again
But you know for me time has woven the realization
Of a truth that's even more thrilling
And that's when the call comes from the portals of glory
To come home where it's supper time
Where all of God's children shall gather
'Round the table with the Lord himself
At the greatest supper time of them all
Come home, come home, it's supper time
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home, it's supper time
We're going home at last
