When the time comes and I am standing at the river
That separates the two worlds that I love
Torn between my precious friends and my family
And the place of peace that's waiting up above
Hold my hand and stay there by my side
And when I finally step into the tide
Celebrate me home!
Celebrate me there
Celebrate me in that land of wonder where nothing can compare
Celebrate me in that place
Celebrate me saved by grace
Don't just sit and weep because I'm gone
Celebrate me Home
I have spent most of my life on earth preparing
To take the trip from here to Heaven's throne
With the Shield and Word of God to guide me
Its a comfort knowing I am not alone
So when I take my final fleeting breath
And fade into the gentle sleep of death
Celebrate me home!
Celebrate me there
Celebrate me in that land of wonder where nothing can compare
Celebrate me in that place
Celebrate me saved by grace
Don't just sit and weep because I'm gone
Celebrate me Home
No more broken dreams
No more tears to cry
Into my Father's arms I'll fly
Celebrate me home!
Celebrate me there
Celebrate me in that land of wonder where nothing can compare
Celebrate me in that place
Celebrate me saved by grace
Don't just sit and weep because I'm gone
Celebrate me Home
Celebrate me Home!
