When I Get Home

We were boyhood pals, the best of friends
And time was on our side
And we thought the world was in our hands
We were young and full of life
But in the twinkling of a moment
Before a chance to say so long
You were taken from our world
And now you're gone

But I'll see you when I get home
In the sweet bye and bye
And we'll walk along the streets of gold
With angels by our side
And time will have no meaning there
In a land of no goodbyes
Oh, it's good to know
I'll see you when I get home

Oh, what a celebration
I hope you all will come
For the Father now is waiting
And soon He'll take us home

And I'll see you when I get home
In the sweet bye and bye
We'll walk along the streets of gold
With angels by our side
And time will have no meaning there
In a land of no goodbyes
Oh, it's good to know
So good to know
It's good to know
I'll see you when I get home

I'll see you when I get home
Someday I'll see you
Oh, it's good to know

We were boyhood pals, the best of friends
And time was on our side
