Suppertime

Many years ago in days of childhood

I used to play till evening shadows came

Then winding down an old familiar pathway

I'd hear my mother call at setting sun

Come home come home it's suppertime

The shadows lengthen fas

Come home come home it's

We're going home at last

Some of my fondest memories of my childhood

Are woven around suppertime

When my mother used to call from the

Back steps of the old home place

Come on home son it's suppertime

Oh gee but i'd love to hear that again

But you know for me time has woven

The realization for truth that's even more thrilling

And that's when the call comes from

The portals of glory to come home where it's suppertime

When all of god's children shall gather around the table

With the lord himself at the greatest suppertime of all

Come home come home it's suppertime

The shadows lengthen fast

Come home come home it's suppertime

We're going home at last
