Before You Call Me Home - Mark Schultz

Black cars in line

The family has arrived

The church fills up

They’ve come to say

Goodbye

If this was my last day

What would they have

To say?

Did I live a life of love

Did I give myself away

Will my kids think of you

When they speak my name

Was I always full of hope

Always reaching out

I wanna cross the finish line

And know I made it count

Before you call me ho ho ho ho home

Before you call me ho ho ho ho ho home

I wanna be a man who

Builds his children up

With a wife who feels like she’s been truly loved

And if I have let them down

Lord help me start

Right now

I wanna live a life of love

I wanna give myself away

I want my kids to think of you

When they speak my name

Always full of hope

Always reaching out

I wanna cross the finished line

And know I made it count

Before you call me ho ho ho ho home

Before you call me ho ho ho ho home

And when i finally close

My eyes ho.

ho ho

And wake up on the

Other side oh oh oh

With my life laid out

In the sun

I wanna hear you say

Well done, well done

I wanna live a life of love

I wanna give myself away

I want my kids to think of you

When they speak my name

Always full of hope

Always reaching out

I wanna cross the finish line

And know i made it count

Before you call me ho ho ho home
