Almost Home

For many long years
 I've travelled this road
 I'm weary and tired
 of carrying this load
 so often I'm tempted
 with Satan to bow
 but I'm too near Home
 to turn back now
 almost Home, I'm almost Home
 almost Home, I'm almost Home
 I know my race is nearly ran,
 I know my race is nearly ran
 Through trouble and sorrow
 I've already come
 Through troubles and sorrow
 I've already come
 I can't turn back now
 for I'm too near home
 I can't turn back now
 for I'm too near home
 As I stand by the river
 that Homeland I see
 that beautiful Mansion
 that He built for me
 just a few days to linger
 and I'll move across
 I know what awaits me
 will be worth all the cost
 almost Home,
 I'm almost Home
 almost Home,
 I'm almost Home
 I know my race is nearly ran,
 I know my race is nearly ran
 Through trouble and sorrow
 I've already come,
 Through troubles and sorrow
 I've already come
 I can't turn back now
 for I'm too near Home,
 I can't turn back now
 for I'm too near Home
 When my labour on earth
 I must lay down,
 I'll go to receive
 my beautiful Crown
 It's "goodbye" my friends
 I've met on my way
 I'll meet them again
 on that Homecoming Day
 Almost Home,
 I'm almost Home
 Almost Home,
 I'm almost Home
 I know my race is nearly ran,
 I know my race is nearly ran
 Through trouble and sorrow
 I've already come,
 through troubles and sorrow
 I've already come
 I can't turn back now
 for I'm too near Home
 I can't turn back now
 for I'm too near Home...
