I know it's been a long long
journey
I know you're tired from your
trip
I can see your pace is slowin' down
An' I can feel you're losin' your grip
I
know it must seem like a million miles
But
you'll never be all alone
I'll be with you
ev'ry step
So John please take us on
home
Take us on home John
Take
us on home
Take us on home
Where we
can rest our weary bones
We know at
the end of this journey
Another one'll soon
begin
We know it's a constant struggle
The game of life is hard to win
Maybe
someday when it's better
We'll set our
hearts at ease from now on
But now all we
got is each other
So John please take us on
home
Take us on home John
Take
us on home
Take us on home
Where we
can rest our weary bones
Maybe when
the struggle is over
We'll have a brand new
life
You'll be a golden chariot
And
I'll have wings to fly
We'll sail away over
golden streets
If there's such a thing goin'
on
But we ain't made it to Heaven yet
So John please take us on home
Take us on home John
Take us on home
Take us on home
Where we never more will
roam...
