George Morgan You're Not Home Yet lyrics

If you've got two or three minutes
Well, I'd like to tell you a story
It's a story about a preacher
And there's a lotta stories about a lotta preachers

But this story that I wanna tell you
Is about a protectoral preacher
Who went over seas to fight a war
Now this is a war forgot and not for any country

And he fought a long, long time
And he won a whole lot of souls
But finally this preacher got old
And he was coming home

He just happened to be
On the same ship with someone
Whom we call a famous celebrity

When the boat docked

There were thousands there to meet the celebrity
And they carried him off of his shoulders

But you, there wasn't no one there
To meet the preacher
And he looked into the heavens and said
"Lord, did You forget me?"

And it seemed like the heavens broke open
And He said, "No son, I didn't forget
But you must remember you're not home yet"

"You're not home, you're not home, you're not home yet"
I can still hear my Lord's voice ringing
"There'll be a crowd to greet you a choir of angels to meet you
"I didn't forget but, son, you're not home yet"
"I didn't forget but, son, you're not home yet"
