ONE DAY CLOSER TO HOME (Song)
ONE DAY CLOSER TO HOME
Copyright © 2017 by Tresca S. Grannum
I can’t wait to go home!
Remember how the sun shined through the green lush trees all around
And the laughter of the angels filled the air with their sound.
Remember how we played with our Papa the whole day through
And our Lord guided us through His pastures, where the skies were so blue.
Remember watching the Elders as they worshipped around the throne
As they cried Holy to Our Lord Jesus, the Lamb, the whole day long.
Remember lying in the meadows watching the birds swoosh by
And there was no more weeping or sadness, not even a sigh.
Remember how we sailed through the clouds, like butterflies, so blessed
Not a care in the world, we were Home, and at rest.
Remember, please remember, for this life is quickly passing by,
And soon we will be home again in the arms of Papa, forever gazing in His eyes.
Chorus
We are one day closer
One day closer
Closer to the place we always knew
A place so heavenly, so pure, so true.
We are one day closer
One day closer
To our home, where life never ends
Where peace and joy dwell, where there is no sin.
One day closer,
One day closer
Yes, it won’t be long
One day closer, to live forever in the place where we belong.
