Lyrics

Returning Home

Returning Home

Sail on home to Jesus, when you're done you're dust
I see the sunset fade from golden to rust
As it flys through that red sky, it goes where it must
Time to let go, the evening to trust
As the sun's final flame, someday I'll drift away

(Chorus)

I'll fly on
Straight back to Jesus, right into the dawn
I'll fly on
I'll sail on
To my final rest, he's the rock in the storm
Returning home

Close of evening flowers, last flush of light
Fall of the leaf in the cool Autumn night
In my mind stir the embers of a radiant life
Angels stoop down, to aid in the flight
And as the sparks turn to starlight,
Strike their brave sacrifice

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)

Waves know no season
As they wash the sands of time
And every teardrop that's fallen,
Finds a way back to the brine

Life goes on
Straight through the darkness, right into the dawn
I'll fly on
I'll sail on
To my final rest, he's the rock in the storm
Returning home
Returning Home
