JESUS TAKE ME HOME JESUS TAKE ME HOME, IN THE SKY SO FAR AWAY, WHERE I CAN BE A CHILD AGAIN, TO LAUGH AND SING AND PLAY. AND JESUS YOU CAN HOLD MY HAND, AS I SKIP ALONG, AND REMEMBER MY MOTHER AND FATHER, AND THE DAY THAT I WAS BORN. JESUS CAN YOU TEACH ME NOW, TO READ THE BIBLE AGAIN, WHEN I WAS IN A DIFFERENT PLACE, I COULD NOT SEE BACK THEN. MY EYES WERE OLD AND WEARY, AND I COULDN'T HEAR TO WELL, BUT I ALWAYS KNEW THE DIFFERENCE, BETWEEN HEAVEN AND A PLACE CALLED HELL. JESUS CAN I SIT ON YOUR LAP? AND HOLD YOU CLOSE TO ME, AND HELP ME TO REMEMBER, THOSE WONDERFUL MEMORIES. JESUS CAN WE SING A SONG, LIKE I USE TO DO BACK THEN, IT MADE MY HEART SO FULL OF JOY, CAN WE SING THEM TOGETHER AGAIN? JESUS I FEEL HAPPY NOW, ALL MY PAINS HAVE LEFT MY SIDE, CAN I STAY WITH YOU FOREVER? TO BE MY HEAVENLY GUIDE. HE TOOK MY HAND AND SMILED AT ME, AS TEARS ROLLED FROM HIS EYES, YOUR SPIRIT WILL LIVE HERE FOREVER CHILD, IT'S THE BODY THAT ONLY DIES. © ALICE DONATELLI
