(Sang) 
Many years ago in days of childhood 
I used to play till evenin' shadows come 
Then windin' down that old familiar pathway 
I heard my mother call at set of sun. 
Come home, come home it's suppertime 
The shadows lengthen fast 
Come home, come home it's suppertime 
We're going home at last. 
(Spoken) 
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood 
Were woven around suppertime 
When my mother used to call 
From the backsteps of the old homeplace 
Come on home now son it's suppertime. 
Ahhhh, but I'd loved to hear that once more 
But you know for me time has woven the realization of 
The truth that's even more thrilling and that's when 
The call come up from the portals of glory 
To come home for it's suppertime when all 
Gods children shall gather around the table of the Lord 
Himself and the greatest suppertime of them all. 
(Sang) 
Come home, come home it's suppertime 
The shadows lengthen fast 
Come home, come home it's suppertime 
We're going home at last...
