Her hair is trimmed in silver
Her hands are aged and worm
A Bible folded in her lap
With pages marked and torn
She prays for all her loved ones
And misses those who have gone
And that's just one more reason
To go home
That's just one more reason
To leave this world behind
Soo she'll be leaving
Eternal joy she'll find
All her tears are wiped away
And all her aches are gone
And that's just one more reason
To go home
Brother served his country well
And died in '44
Both mom and dad, a year apart
Just never woke one morn
Her best friend was her handsome groom
Last fall, he passed on
And that's just one more reason
To go home
That's just one more reason
To leave this world behind
Soo she'll be leaving
Eternal joy she'll find
All her tears are wiped away
And all her aches are gone
And that's just one more reason
To go home
All her tears are wiped away
And all her aches are gone
And that's just one more reason
To go home
