Suppertime
The Cathedrals
1.

Chorus
Come home, come home.
It's suppertime.
The shadows lengthen fast.
Come home come home.
It's suppertime we're going home at last.
Recitation

truth that's even more thrilling. That someday we'll
be called up to gather around the suppertable up
there for the greatest suppertime of them all with
our Lord.
Ah, I can almost hear the call now comin'
from the portals of heaven from the voice of the
Master, "Come on home son, it's suppertime . . .
