I stumbled down a long dark road From sunlight I had strayed The demons came and beckoned me I was lost and so afraid I felt that I was falling I thought it was a dream I called upon my Father To come and rescue me Oh Father rescue me A door just seemed to open The darkness turned to light The Lord appeared before me He wore a robe of white He spoke my name softly I felt such peace within He gently wrapped me in His arms And forgave me all my sins He forgave me all my sins Another door was opened A vision came so clear I was on a ship now sailing My Lord was standing near He pointed towards the distant shore And whispered to my soul Your journey now is oer my child Rejoice and welcome home Rejoice and welcome home I saw my precious mother She was waiting by the river She smiled and waved and called my name There were angels all around her No sickness, pain or sorrow No strife, no fear of war No devils lies, no children cry All is peace forevermore There is peace forevermore Oh brother, my dear brother You life could end today Except a man be born again He cannot see the way For Jesus there is waiting To lead us past the grave And take us home to be with Him When the final journeys made When the final journeys made lets go home
journey, forgave, forevermore, rejoice, peace
