On the Day He Calls Me Home

Precious is the passing
Of His children before His eyes
As I move from death to life
To immortality

On the day I draw my final breath
And my time on earth is done
Only the good I knew while living here
Will be my fondest memory
Works of gold and silver follow me
And my children are my legacy
A life of caring
And showing love wherever I would go
You'll find my name in the Book of Remembrance
On the day He calls me home

Prayer has been my way of life to give
What God has given me just for you
To run the race, to finish my course
And keep the faith is my desire

When the arms of Jesus welcome me
I will know that I am safe
Greeting loved ones before passing through the gate
Will be a moment I elate
I will hear the angel summon me
As the Father bids me to the throne
I bow before Him, to feel a love I've never felt before
It will be more than anything I've ever known
On the day He calls me home
There may not be time to say good-bye
On the day He calls me home
