While drinking alone in a tap room one day my eyes they hardly could see I heard a voice ringing so loud and clear and here's what that voice said to me Go home, go home and kneel by your bedside and pray Go home, go home, God will answer your prayers today I staggered across the room to the door I almost fell on the floor I knew there was laughter but I could not hear for the words that still rang in my ears Go home, go home and kneel by your bedside and pray Go home, go home, God will answer your prayers today God sobered my mind and He saved my soul and he raised my thoughts from all filth then back to the tavern I preached His word the words that still ring in my ears Go home, go home and kneel by your bedside and pray Go home, go home, God will answer your prayers today The crowd started leaving with heads bowed so low the bartender picked up the keys as he locked the door he murmured these words the same words God spoke to me Go home, go home and kneel by your bedside and pray Go home, go home, God will answer your prayers today
