Текст песни Almost Home - Ralph Stanley

For many long years
I've travelled this road
I'm weary and tired
Of carrying this load
So often I'm tempted
With Satan to bow
But I'm too near Home
To turn back now
Almost Home, I'm almost Home
Almost Home, I'm almost Home
I know my race is nearly ran,
I know my race is nearly ran
Through trouble and sorrow
I've already come
Through troubles and sorrow
I've already come
I can't turn back now
For I'm too near home
I can't turn back now
For I'm too near home
As I stand by the river
That Homeland I see
That beautiful Mansion
That He built for me
Just a few days to linger
And I'll move across
I know what awaits me
Will be worth all the cost
Almost Home,
I'm almost Home
Almost Home,
I'm almost Home
I know my race is nearly ran,
I know my race is nearly ran
Through trouble and sorrow
I've already come,
Through troubles and sorrow
I've already come
I can't turn back now
For I'm too near Home,
I can't turn back now
For I'm too near Home
When my labour on earth
I must lay down,
I'll go to receive
My beautiful Crown
It's "goodbye" my friends
I've met on my way
I'll meet them again
On that Homecoming Day
Almost Home,
I'm almost Home
Almost Home,
I'm almost Home
I know my race is nearly ran,
I know my race is nearly ran
Through trouble and sorrow
I've already come,
Through troubles and sorrow
I've already come
I can't turn back now
For I'm too near Home
I can't turn back now
For I'm too near Home...
