His beckoning draws us nearer
We'll never again roam
We will no longer fear!

Though life has been hard for us,
The battle's been won!
Not by me, nor you, nor us,
Only by His blood, His love,
Christ's death gave, for us!

Skin color won't matter,
Our faith, our love, our forgiveness will.
Let our mouths open to HIS chatter-
Til our hearts, at last, stand still!

The greatest banquet awaits!
Christ invites His friends...come.
Are you all His friends? Lo, yon gates,
Have you forgiven, given to the poor,

Helped all, loved all, given of yourselves?
Been good Samaritans? WELCOME HOME!
You'll be missed, you'll be LOVED
ADIOS, AU REVIOR, AUF WIEDERERSEHEN!
