" I’m Finally Home "
(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)
( Verse 1 )
I remember the day they gave me the news,
Said, Son, we’ve done all that we can do.
I walked out slow with tears in my eyes,
Knowing my time was measured in sighs.
I held my wife’s hand, tried to stay strong,
But deep down I knew I wouldn’t be here long.
( Chorus )
I’m finally home where the pain is gone,
Where the angels sing and my soul belongs.
No more shadows, no more night,
I see my Savior in the brightest light.
Don’t weep too long, don’t feel alone,
Lift your eyes to heaven
I’m finally home.
( Verse 2 )
The chemo lines, the hospital bed,
The prayers whispered over my head.
But even in pain, I never lost sight,
That death’s just a doorway into God’s light.
I told my children, Don’t be afraid,
This isn’t goodbye, it’s just a short wait.
( Chorus )
I’m finally home where the pain is gone,
Where the angels sing and my soul belongs.
No more shadows, no more night,
I see my Savior in the brightest light.
Don’t weep too long, don’t feel alone,
Lift your eyes to heaven
I’m finally home.
( Bridge )
I see mama’s smile, I hear daddy’s laugh,
The friends I’ve missed are waiting at last.
The cancer’s gone, the tears are through,
And I’ll be right here watching over you.
(Chorus )
I’m finally home where the pain is gone,
Where the angels sing and my soul belongs.
No more shadows, no more night,
I see my Savior in the brightest light.
Don’t weep too long, don’t feel alone,
Lift your eyes to heaven
I’m finally home.
( Outro )
So when your journey comes to an end,
You’ll find me waiting, my dearest friend.
Hand in hand before God’s throne,
Together forever…
Finally home.
