For many long years I've travelled this road I'm weary and tired Of carrying this load So often I'm tempted With Satan to bow But I'm too near Home To turn back now Almost Home, I'm almost Home Almost Home, I'm almost Home I know my race is nearly ran, I know my race is nearly ran Through trouble and sorrow I've already come Through troubles and sorrow I've already come I can't turn back now For I'm too near home I can't turn back now For I'm too near home As I stand by the river That Homeland I see That beautiful Mansion That He built for me Just a few days to linger And I'll move across I know what awaits me Will be worth all the cost Almost Home, I'm almost Home Almost Home, I'm almost Home I know my race is nearly ran, I know my race is nearly ran Through trouble and sorrow I've already come, Through troubles and sorrow I've already come I can't turn back now For I'm too near Home, I can't turn back now For I'm too near Home When my labour on earth I must lay down, I'll go to receive My beautiful Crown It's "goodbye" my friends I've met on my way I'll meet them again On that Homecoming Day Almost Home, I'm almost Home Almost Home, I'm almost Home I know my race is nearly ran, I know my race is nearly ran Through trouble and sorrow I've already come, Through troubles and sorrow I've already come I can't turn back now For I'm too near Home I can't turn back now For I'm too near Home...
