[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]When I was but a
[F]boy in days of [C]childhood,
I [G]used to play till evening shadows [C]come.
Then winding down an
[F]old familiar [C]pathway,
I [G]heard my mother call that set of [C]songs.
Come [F]home, come home,
it's [Dm]supper [C]time.
The [G]shadows lengthen [C]fast.
Come [F]home, come home,
it's [Dm]supper [C]time,
we're [G]going home at [C]last.
Some of the fondest remem[F]brances
of my child[C]hood were
woven about supper time.
As the shadows grew [G]long in the evening
and the birds start to wing their way home,
[C]I knew it would not be long till my mother would
call from the back steps of the old home place,
It's [F]supper time, come on home.
[Dm]Well[C], it didn't take much persuasion
to get we hungry children
to [G]put in our kites,
pull up our toys,
[C]and start for home.
Those days are gone now,
but the memory of them [F]began to
weave a truth into my soul
that is even [C]more thrilling than the
memory of those childhood days,
[G]for I am sure it will not be long
till we hear the suppertime [C]call
from the portals of glory,
and then we'll all [F]put away
the things of this [Dm]life
and heed the call for the [C]greatest suppertime
of them but all of God's chil[G]dren,
and with [C]Jesus.[F][C]
In visions now I [F]see her stand[Dm]ing [C]yonder,
and [G]her familiar voice I hear once [C]more.
The banquet table's [F]ready
up [Dm]in he[C]aven,[G][C]
Come [F]home, come home,
it's [Dm]supper [C]time,
[Dm]The [G]shadows lengthen fast.[C]
Come [F]home, come home,
it's supper [C]time,
We're [G]going home at [C]last.
