Many years on the road, many more miles to go,
We cannot waste another single day,
The nights are hard and long, but he will make us strong enough to take his love and give it all away.
And I know, (and I know that I know)
He said to go.
'Cause there's a war that's going on,
A soul is breaking,
Battle-weary one is praying,
Yes, and we must understand what the song is saying,
Come on home to the Father,
Come on home to the Son,
Come on home, the battle's over,
Christ has won.
Tonight could be the night you could see the light,
You could trade your worst in for his best,
He could take your sin and cast it in the wind, as far as from east is to the west.
And I know, (and I know that I know)
It's almost time to go.
'Cause there's a war that's going on,
A soul is raging,
Battle-weary one, some as friends,
Yes, and we must understand what the song is saying,
Come on home to the Father,
Come on home to the Son,
Come on home, the battle's over,
Christ has won.
So come on home,
Come on home,
Come on home, children,
Come on home.
I can hear the saviour say...
Come on home,
Come on home, (all lonely people, you can come on home)
Come on home,
Come on home, (Jesus is waiting) (Jesus is waiting on you, children)
Come on home,
Come on home,
Come on home, (my brothers and my sisters, why don't you come on home?)
Come on home, (the war is over)
(etc, fade)
