Many years ago in days of childhood
I used to play untill evening shadows came
Then winding down an old familiar pathway
I hear my mother call at setting 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
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood are woven around suppertime
When mother used to call from the backsteps of the old homeplace
"Come on home now son, it's suppertime," My how i'd love to hear that once again
But you know time has woven for me a realization of a truth that's even more thrilling
That soon we'll be called together around the great supper table up there
For the greatest suppertime of them all with our Lord
I can almost hear the call now coming through 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
