Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We came down to Arkansas
With our black shoes in a row
Mama’s picture on the dash
And your ring held soft and low
By the lake the cypress bent
Like it knew what we came for
One last time to say your name
Then let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
You held us through the hard years
With your hands and your prayer
Now we stand here by the water
And feel you everywhere
No more hurting, no more fear
No more weight to carry
[Chorus]
Go on home, Grandma
Go on home
Grandpa’s waiting by the lake
Where the wild geese roam
Go on home, Grandma
You’re finally free
No more pain
Just peace for you and me
[Verse 2]
The sun was gold on the pine trees
And the wind moved through the grass
We told stories in the silence
About the summers we had passed
Your laugh still hangs in the kitchen
On every chipped up plate
And I swear I heard you calling
“Don’t be late”
[Pre-Chorus]
You held us through the hard years
With your hands and your prayer
Now we stand here by the water
And feel you everywhere
No more hurting, no more fear
No more weight to carry
[Chorus]
Go on home, Grandma
Go on home
Grandpa’s waiting by the lake
Where the wild geese roam
Go on home, Grandma
You’re finally free
No more pain
Just peace for you and me
[Bridge]
If heaven has a front porch
You’re already in the chair
Feet up, smiling at the sunset
With your faith laid bare
We’ll miss you till forever
But we know where you are
Safe in love
Safe in light
Safe in Grandpa’s arms
[Final Chorus]
Go on home, Grandma
Go on home
Grandpa’s waiting by the lake
Where the wild geese roam
Go on home, Grandma
You’re finally free
No more pain
Just peace for you and me
Go on home, Grandma
Rest easy now
Arkansas holds your goodbye
And we know somehow
Go on home, Grandma
You’re finally free
No more pain
Just peace for you and me
