I'm Going Home

When my Savior calls me,
to that Home in the sky,
and tells me he's ready,
for us to Heaven fly,
I'm Going Home

When Gabriel plays,
that trumpet of gold,
that miraculous sound,
will wake the young and the old,
I'm Going Home

When the dead rise,
from their long slumber,
to the dawning of a new day,
the ways of sin will not them encumber,
I'm Going Home

When the world burns,
with the end of time,
Angels will sing,
and devils will cry,
I'm Going Home

When Judgment Day comes,
He forgives his own,
for we all are guilty,
but you know what?

~I'm Going Home~

Author notes

This is a poem of great emotion, I believe.  I know I haven't posted anything in a while, so I thought this would be a great come-back.  Tell me what you think, and I hope I blessed someone with my words.  God Bless You All!

    Ooooooo I liked this Danny I mean usually I don't really take to religious poems but this one is different. It conveys your faith in God and I applaud it. I think what really sealed the deal for me was the way you described Judgement Day since it was really original keep it up

    I love the poem alot , but I have few a questions? If Jesus coming back to earth then why are you going to heaven If he's not there. If Jesus die on the cross ,and the veil of the temple was torn, and the dead in Christ has risen how are they going to get up again? This is a great piece beautifully written and I do truly love it! These are my questions?

    Yay.

    I really do like this poem, though I have to admit, I'm a bit far from spiritual. Feeling poems about God, Christ, Jesus... is hard. But it's easier to understand when the poem is as well written as this. I do have one suggestion, however.

    When my Savior calls me,
    to that Home in the sky,
    and tells me he's ready,
    for us to Heaven fly,
    I'm Going Home

    With the fourth line of this stanza, it might sound better if it were to have "to fly" and if the words were moved around. The grammar is technically incorrect here. If you switch the sentence around, it seems more like "He tells me he's ready for us fly to heaven." You know?

    I think this poem was wonderful. Keep up the great work.

    You ignorant fool!! How dare you!! You took this poem for something totally different than it was intended. It wasn't written for a GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT purposes, it was written to praise God! I think you need to work on your manners!
    But anyway I hope you find God before Satan corrupts you further,

    Do you want us to take seriously a poem which begins

    When my Savior calls me,
    to that Home in the sky,
    and tells me he's ready,
    for us to Heaven fly,
    I'm Going Home

    You can't be serious. This is 2006, not 1706. You get the capital letters award of the year. I shall bookmark this for humour. Unbelievable.

    Nicely written religious poem. I think it would be PERFECT if the lines were metered a bit more, but overall, it is wonderful and the message you send is really warming to my heart. Nice poem. I enjoyed it!

    Hey, this was pretty darn good considering you haven't written anything in awhile. (Neither have I come to think of it) Really religious and uplifting I guess.

    When Gabriel plays,
    that trumpet of gold,
    that miraculous sound,
    will wake the young and the old,
    I'm Going Home

    I loved that stanza for two reasons. 1: everyone else liked a different stanza and 2: I can see a purty white angel spreading the music of the Lord. (I'm SOOO deep at times.) Well I guess you could call this another great write by another great poet dude man.

    Well Danny!! I really liked this poem!! It was really kool! But anyways, I think the rhyming was really good!

    When Judgment Day comes,
    He forgives his own,
    for we all are guilty,
    but you know what?

    ~I'm Going Home~

    That was my favorite part!! Great job Danny!! Good luck in the contest thingy!

    That was a good ending for an all-around religious poem.

    amazing

    Hey nice poem. full of hope and life. I take it that you are not affraid of death. i admire that. your poem gave such great imagery. It is a nice poem to think to yourself just before you die. The mention of judgement day was perfect for this, becuase when that time comes, we will finally know where we are meant to go. great poem, God bless.

    Oh and I forgot to mention to you, I'm running a contest called 'Holding on with hope'. This poem would be the perfect entry for my contest, so you should think about entering. See my author page for quick reference to the contest. Anyway best of luck! God bless xx

    Wow!! This is an amazing message and feeling to put to paper, and the words flowed so well, ecspecially with the repetiton of the title ending each stanza.
    Being a christian the thought of judgement day excites me soo much knowing the saviour is coming to get us.
    So all believers must spread the message to non-believers and sinners, to make themselves right with god, otherwise how will they wipe the blood from their hands when judgement day comes??
    Fab write!! Keep it up and God bless you x ! x
