[Verse]
I come to You to answer my prayer
I long to know about Heaven
After the body dies
Where does the soul begin?
Where have all the good people gone?
The people that I love
Have they gone to the Garden
Where the tree of life grows tall
And the weeping is no more?

[Chorus]
(Answer my prayer) When a great man falls
(Answer my prayer) And the sky is collapsed
(Answer my prayer) There's a joy in this world
(Answer my prayer) Is he home at last?

[Verse 2]
What is my sin, Lord? Where is my joy?
I am a motherless child
I have no father, he was my compass
He was the northern star
Out on the highway, she came a-racing
He didn't know what's to come
How can you teach a child about dying over and over again?

[Chorus]
(Answer my prayer) When a great man falls
(Answer my prayer) And the sky is collapsed
(Answer my prayer) There's a joy in this world
(Answer my prayer) Is he home at last?

[Outro]
Home at last
He is home at last
Home at last
He is home at last
(Home at last)
(Home at last)
(Home at last)
He is home at last
Yes, he is, yes, he is
