When He Takes Me Home

Lord, I�ve traveled all around.
It seems I just roam
And I know there�s no place like Heaven.
So, Lord, please take me home.

When this life, here on earth, is done
And there�s no one left to love,
Please send my angel for this one,
To be with Thee above.

I know there�s all things of beauty there,
Which seems to escapes me here.
I want to see the tree of life and a white robe wear,
And by my Savior be near.

I'd like to see Thine own garden of beauty
And all You�d have for me to do,
By Thine own side enjoy every duty
And bow at Thy feet and worship, too.

I can almost hear the angels singing
With the pure joy of it all,
When they see Thee, under Thy wing,
Bringing more souls to come to call.
