Home With The Angels (Remix)

Oh, heaven's light is shining down

I miss you, Mama, every single day

The house is quiet, the shadows grow long

I’m searching for the rhythm of your favorite song

I see your chair sitting by the window pane

I whisper your name just to hear it again

You taught me how to walk, you taught me how to pray

You showed me grace when my skies were gray

I’m walking through these halls of memory

Wishing you were still here holding onto me

Oh, Mama, you’re resting in the arms of the Lord

You’ve claimed your crown, you’ve gained your reward

I know you’re singing with the angels tonight

Walking in the glory of the eternal light

Yes Lord, you’re finally home, you’re finally free

But there’s a missing piece here inside of me

Hallelujah, I’ll meet you by the garden gates

Until that day, I’ll trust in faith as heaven waits

I remember the scent of your Sunday best

The way you’d put my worried heart to rest

You gave me strength when I had none left to give

You taught me the only way that I should live

Now the pews are empty where you used to sit

But your spirit remains, I’m holding onto it

Thank You Jesus for the time that we had

Even though my heart feels so heavy and sad

Oh, Mama, you’re resting in the arms of the Lord

You’ve claimed your crown, you’ve gained your reward

I know you’re singing with the angels tonight

Walking in the glory of the eternal light

Yes Lord, you’re finally home, you’re finally free

But there’s a missing piece here inside of me

Hallelujah, I’ll meet you by the garden gates

Until that day, I’ll trust in faith as heaven waits

I know the promise, I know the Word is true

But oh, the silence, it’s hard to get through

Glory to the One who wipes away every tear

Even in the valley, I know He is near

Give my love to heaven, tell them I’m holding on

I’ll keep the flame burning until the dawn

So I’ll keep on living the way you would want

With love as my armor and truth as my font

I’ll keep on praising until my work is done

Looking for the rising of the morning sun

You’re in the clouds, you’re in the breeze

You’re bowing low down on your knees

Praise Him for the legacy that you left behind

In the chambers of my heart, you’re forever enshrined

Oh, Mama, you’re resting in the arms of the Lord

You’ve claimed your crown, you’ve gained your reward

I know you’re singing with the angels tonight

Walking in the glory of the eternal light

Yes Lord, you’re finally home, you’re finally free

But there’s a missing piece here inside of me

Hallelujah, I’ll meet you by the garden gates

Until that day, I’ll trust in faith as heaven waits

I’ll meet you there, Mama

At the garden gates, oh yes I will

Rest in glory, rest in peace

Amen, Amen, Amen
