When God does call us home again
It matters not our name
Or if we did success achieve
And found an earthly fame
It matters not the gold we sought
The diamond or the pearl
Or if a war we there had won
With banners to unfurl
It matters not the path we took
If goodness was our guide
If we religion did espouse
Or from its demons hide
It matters not if we did lead
Or merely watch and pray
With focus on a precious faith
That God had sent our way
When God does call us home again
Will we him recognize
Simplistic in his presence
With love he’ll not disguise
And will we be most worthy too
And there his grace achieve
It’s not just living here on earth
But how we do believe
It’s sharing all that we possess
With everyone we know
Allowing knowledge to transform
Just how we seem to grow
It’s giving of our talents
Relinquishing our heart
Loving just because we can
As each new day does start
When God does call us home again
We’ll thank him for our time
Then share our life experience
Both in and out of rhyme
We’ll tell him of each consequence
Of all that we did learn
Then thank him for the gift of love
That we in life must earn
And last but most importantly
We’ll share what he has taught
That life well lived is heaven sent
And can’t be sold or bought
