Verse 1:
Now and then I look back, as a child heading homeward
How I’d open the door, always perfectly sure Mama’s sweet face I’d see
I’d say, "Mama, I’m home!" She would smile when she saw me
In her comforting arms, I felt cherished and warm,
That’s where "home" was to me.

Verse 2:
Years later, I strayed, bringing sorrow to Mama
But she stayed on her knees, pleading mercy for me, and her faith did not sway
I was battered and scarred when I finally surrendered
Letting Jesus atone for my old heart of stone, I could call her and say

[Chorus]
Mama, I’m home! I’m where I belong now
In the family at last, free from my awful past
Part of God’s master plan
Mama, I’m home! It finally happened,
What you taught me was true now my life’s been made new
By the Father’s own hand.

Verse 3:
Now for years Mom’s been gone, and I’ve been alone on this journey
Her example was strong, so when something goes wrong, I remember to pray
Now, Jordan’s crossing’s in sight, and I know she’ll be waiting
When I land on that shore, and see her face once more,
Guess what I’m gonna say?

Chorus 2:
Mama, I’m home! Mom, I made it to Heaven!
Though the road wasn’t kind, often tears made me blind
I somehow held on .
Mama, I’m home will you take me to Jesus?
Let me thank Him for you, how your prayers pulled me through
Mama, I’m HOME!

Tag:
Let me thank Jesus for you, your prayers pulled me through
Mama, I’m home
