I’m Going Home

Written by Dale Riddle

Performed by Dale and Gilda Riddle

 Verse 1:

Life on this earth is very special.

Enjoyment comes in many ways.

I love my wife, adore my children

But it won’t stay like this always.


Chorus:

I’m going home to live in heaven.

I’m going home to a better way.

I’m going home to live with Jesus.

I’m going home; I’m going home.

 

Verse 2:

Friends here on earth are always leaving.

Mom and Dad and loved ones gone.

But up in heaven, they’ll all be waiting.

Say, “Welcome home, yes welcome home.”

 

Chorus:

I’m going home to live in heaven.

I’m going home to a better way.

I’m going home to live with Jesus.

I’m going home; I’m going home.

 

Verse 3:

If you are troubled and feeling lonesome,

Life in despair, hope almost gone.

Just give your life to our sweet Jesus.

You’ll have a friend; you’ll have a home.

 

Chorus:

I’m going home to live in heaven.

I’m going home to a better way.

I’m going home to live with Jesus.

I’m going home; I’m going home.
