When the time comes and I'm standing at the river
That seperates the two worlds that I love,
Torn between my precious friends and my family
And the place of peace that's waiting up above,
Hold my hand and stay there by my side,
And when I finally step into the tide,
Celebrate me home, celebrate me there.
Celebrate me in that land of wonder where nothing can compare.
Celebrate me in that place, celebrate me saved by grace.
Don't just sit and weep because I'm gone;
Celebrate me home.
I have spent most of my life on earth preparing
To take the trip from here to Heaven's throne.
With the shield and Word of God to guide me
It's a comfort knowing I am not alone.
So when I take my final final fleeting breath
And fade into the gentle sleep of death.
Celebrate me home, celebrate me there.
Celebrate me in that land of wonder where nothing can compare.
Celebrate me in that place, celebrate me saved by grace.
Don't just sit and weep because I'm gone;
Celebrate me home.
No more broken dreams. No more tears to cry.
Into my Father's arms I'll fly.
Celebrate me home, celebrate me there.
Celebrate me in that land of wonder where nothing can compare.
Celebrate me in that place, celebrate me saved by grace.
Don't just sit and weep because I'm gone;
Celebrate me home.
Celebrate me home.
