For many long years I've traveled this road,
I'm weary and tired of carrying my load;
Oh yes I've been tempted by Satan to bow,
But I'm too near home to turn back now.
CHOURS
Almost home, I'm almost home.
I know my race is almost run;
thru troubles and trials I've already come
And I can't turn back now,
I'm almost home.
II
I stand at the river, that homeland I see,
A beautiful mansion that's built just for me;
Just a few more evenings, then morning will dawn.
My journey all ended, and I'll be home.
