[Intro] G D G [Verse 1]
              G
Oh that home above so far away

                                    D
That's where we pray we'll live someday

              G
In that home above beyond the starlight sky

                            D     G
Where the souls of man will never die
[Chorus]
             D                  G

Dad and mother will say welcome home our son

                               D      G
In our heavenly home your life just begun

Oh my mother and dad have gone before

                                   D
They're waiting for me on heaven's shore

          G
I long to see and shake their hands

                         D        G
When I'm safe at home as they had planned
[Chorus]
             D                  G
I'm ready to leave this world below

Oh that beautiful land where we never die

                                   D
That's where my soul shall rest on high

              G
I'll sing and shout for his face I've seen

                          D     G
And with God I'll rest to eternity

In our heavenly home your life just begun
