For Marilyn

Sovereign lord as you have promised You dismissed your servant in peace My eyes have seen your salvation Which you prepared for me Light and revelation to the sinners And glory to your people on earth I will praise you everyday Until you call me by name And save me from myself and all this hurt When God calls my name I will answer with praise And reunite with my kinfolk and my Lord Jesus Christ my Lord It wont be riches or fame But I'll sing in God's holy name I'll worship him without shame for all my days Now I'm grey and old And my eyes they fade away Mamma I'm coming home O Lord I'm coming home God has called my name And I bow down with praise I hug my kinfolk and I kiss my Lord O I kiss the scars of my Lord It wasn't riches or fame But I sang in God's holy name And worshipped him without shame For all my days I loved Jesus Christ all the way That's what I want my kinfolk to say
