What a joyful day it will be
When my Savior's face I'll see.
Every pain and sorrow gone
I'm finally with the Holy One.

Never will I doubt or fear
When Christ, God's Son is standing near.
"Welcome home" He'll say to me
With arms outstretched for all to see.

I'll touch the scars and search His face
And worship His amazing grace.
Trace the scars of nail pierced hands
And thorn scarred brow all done for man.

With perfect love and abundant grace
I'll humbly welcome His embrace.
Until that time for me has come,
I'll keep my faith in going home.
