Take Me Home, Lord! Poem by Richard Antwi

Take me Home, Lord
Take me home, my Good Lord
I am tired and weary
I don't belong here any more
The Good garden you created for me
Is overpowered by sin and evil
Take me home, Lord
Where I belong

Take me home, Lord
Take me home
To your paradise
To dine with the angels
Even though I deserve not
But through thy tender mercies

Take me home, Sweet Lord
Take me out of this sinful world
Where peace you freely gave
Turned to chaos
Poverty and disease
Overriding us
Take me home Lord
But with all those
Whose names are written in your books
Take me home, Lord!
