Many years ago in days of childhood

I used to play till evening time would come

Still winding down that old familiar pathway

I hear my mother call at setting sun

"Come home come home it's suppertime"

The shadows lengthen so fast

"Come home come home it's suppertime"

We're going home at last

Some of the fondest memories of my childhood

Are woven around suppertime

When mother used to call from the back steps

Of the old home place

"Come on home now son it's suppertime"

How I'd love to hear that once again

But you know the time has woven for me the realization

Of a truth that's even more thrilling

That someday we'll be called to gather

Around the great supper table up there

For the greatest suppertime of them all with our Lord

I can almost hear the call now

Comin' from the portals of Heaven

"Come home son it's suppertime"

"Come home come home it's suppertime"

The shadows lengthen fast

"Come home come home it's suppertime"

We're going home at last
