Lyrics 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
