There's ain't no sense in lying I know that I'm dying my friend. My body is leaving I know death is reeling me in I can see all your faces And feel your good graces within. My spirit is soaring Although my old body won't mend.
Tattered up pages And the wisdom of sages won't help. There ain't a cure for a place so impure I don't doubt. I'm sorry to leave you But know that old death ain't the end I will see you in the Kingdom of Light When our souls meet again.
Chorus: x2 O, Lord x3 I'm coming home to you Lord.
Hold my old hand And I'll kiss you like when we were young. My spirits alive I ain't leaving til my song is sung. I can hear that old devil Licking at the air with his tongue. My Lord will cut him in half As I hang from the rungs.
We've been on a path That has left us with laughter and cheer. I wouldn't trade nothing For what we have done in our years. So call off the dogs Let 'em go And tell 'em I'm here Cause my spirit is yours And I'll love you forever my dear.
Chorus: x2 O, Lord x3 I'm coming home to you Lord.
