The Journey

I stumbled down a long dark road

From sunlight I had strayed

The demons came and beckoned me

I was lost and so afraid

I felt that I was falling

I thought it was a dream

I called upon my Father

To come and rescue me

Oh Father rescue me

A door just seemed to open

The darkness turned to light

The Lord appeared before me

He wore a robe of white

He spoke my name softly

I felt such peace within

He gently wrapped me in His arms

And forgave me all my sins

He forgave me all my sins

Another door was opened

A vision came so clear

I was on a ship now sailing

My Lord was standing near

He pointed towards the distant shore

And whispered to my soul

"Your journey now is o'er my child

Rejoice and welcome home"

Rejoice and welcome home

I saw my precious mother

She was waiting by the river

She smiled and waved and called my name

There were angels all around her

No sickness, pain or sorrow

No strife, no fear of war

No devil's lies, no children cry

All is peace forevermore

There is peace forevermore

Oh brother, my dear brother

You life could end today

Except a man be born again

He cannot see the way

For Jesus there is waiting

To lead us past the grave

And take us home to be with Him

When the final journey's made

When the final journey's made

(Let's go home)
