[Verse 1]
There ain't no sense in lying I know that I'm dying, my friend
My body is leaving, I know Death is reeling me in
I can see all your faces and feel your good graces within
My spirit is soaring although my old body won't mend

Tattered up pages and the wisdom of sages won't help
There ain't a cure for a place so impure, I don't doubt
I'm sorry to leave you but know that ol' Death ain't the end
I will see you in the kingdom of light when our souls meet again

[Chorus]
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Oh, Lord, I'm coming home to you, Lord
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Oh, Lord, I'm coming home to you, Lord

[Verse 2]
Hold my old hand and I'll kiss you like when we were young
My spirit's alive, I ain't leaving 'til my song is sung
I can hear that old devil licking at the air with his tongue
My Lord will cut him in half as I hang from the rungs

We've been on a path that has left us with laughter and cheer
I wouldn't trade nothing for what we have done in our years
So call off the dogs, let Death in here and tell him I'm here
'Cause my spirit is yours, I'll love you forever, my dear
[Chorus]
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Oh, Lord, I'm coming home to you, Lord
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Oh, Lord, I'm coming home to you, Lord
I am coming home to you, Lord
