Acapeldridge's 'When I Go Home' is a Christian song about the hope of heaven and the moment of meeting God face to face. The lyrics express anticipation of leaving behind fear and pain, seeing Christ as He is, and having every tear wiped away. The song also touches on enduring trials and holding onto God's promises when His presence feels distant. It reflects a longing for eternal rest and the comfort of being fully known by God.

Verse 1: 

In the moment He appears and the light from heaven shines,

I?ll forget ev?ry fear, ev?ry pain I?ll leave behind. 

Then I?ll see Him as He is and I?ll know Him as I?m known.

Ev?ry tear wiped away when I go home.


Verse 2:

Ever present is the tho?t 

that a moment waits for me 

when unworthy as I am,

His glory I will see. 

I will empty all my praise 

before my Father?s throne. 

Ev?ry tear wiped away when I go home.


Verse 3: 

If the trial I endure 

and your presence I can?t find, 

be near me, Lord, I pray, 

bring back unto my mind 

That your promises are firm 

and I?m never on my own. 

Ev?ry tear wiped away when I go home.
