The winds of war keep raging through the land far and near
The cries of hungry children, the pain, the falling tears
Nations gather around the table, for peace they've tried for years
Yet war still rages higher, sweeping through the battlefields
Oh, we're living with the greatest promise that man has ever known
The promise came from Heaven, a blessed peace and hope
Oh, the battle keeps raging higher but we will have no fear
The Savior's arms are open and soon He shall appear
CHORUS
It's almost over, we are going home
Our Lord is coming to claim His own
Be faithful, children, brave and strong
It's almost over we are going home
