Song Lyrics 

TONIGHT I’M GOING HOME ©1996,John A.Poe,Jr.
•

1 This morning early, I was born, and now it’s afternoon; I don’t know where the hours went, but night time’s coming soon. There’s so much left for me to do before the sun goes down, But late tonight I’ll sleep a while, then rise and get my crown. •
(chorus) My life on Earth is but a day, and how the time has flown! But I am not afraid to leave; tonight, I’m going home. •
2 It’s been the strangest day so far;  I’ve known both joy and tears, With ups and downs, and pain and pleasure, certainty and fears; But, stranger still, I won’t be frightened  when I start my flight, And I don’t fear the darkness --- in my home there is no night. •

(chorus) My life on Earth is but a day, and how the time has flown! But I am not afraid to leave; tonight, I’m going home. •
3 I can’t explain this mystery that leads to paradise: If I am only born one time, then I will perish twice. But when I gave my life to Jesus, I was born again, So I’ll die once, and then awaken there in Gloryland. •
(chorus) My life on Earth is but a day, and how that time has flown! But I am not afraid to leave; tonight, I’m going home.
No, I am not afraid to go; tonight, I’ll be at home. • •
