Jim Reeves - Suppertime Lyrics
[Sang]
Many years ago in days of childhood
I used to play till evenin' shadows come
Then windin' down that old familiar pathway
I'd hear my mother call at set of sun.
Come home, come home it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime
We're going home at last.
[Spoken]
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood
Were woven around suppertime
When my mother used to call
From the backsteps of the old homeplace
Ahhhh, but I'd loved to hear that once more
But you know for me time has woven the realization of
The truth that's even more thrilling and that's when
The call come up from the portals of glory
To come home for it's suppertime.
When all Gods children shall gather around the table
of the Lord, Himself and the greatest suppertime of them all.
[Sang]
Come home, come home it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime
We're going home at last...

Said it before King of Country music King forever Ceasing never always was always will be
Just bursting my heart. Takes me so far, my brother's learning to play guitar, music in church sitting on a porch singing, helping my mom lead singing in church. Guess I could go on and on. Don't care that it makes me cry, tear's cleaned the soul and connects us to so many wonderful memories that we made in life. Wonderful Songs are a Blessing and Healing.
My dad used to sit in the kitchen and sing Jim reeves songs. Now I listen and remember him. R. I. P. Dad. Tnx jim

When Jim Reeves sang hymns and Gospel songs, you believed him! This one was written by
Ira Forest Stanphill (1914-1993). Of the over 500 songs he wrote, the most famous is "MANSION OVER THE HILLTOP." Stanphill was an evangelist who pastored many churches and preached in over 40 countries. He could sing, and played the piano, organ, accordian, clarinet, xylophone, ukulele, and saxaphone. In 1976 he had a malignant brain tumor removed, and lived another 17 years before expiring from a heart attack at age 79.
the velvet voice of the legend Jim Reeves is Lively

This song brings back my childhood memories.
Heard this song a lot when i was a kid. My mother would sing it in bands w/ my dad. Its a tear jerker anyway, but i also think of my mom n dad in their youth and makes me sad. My father died Christmas morn 2005. My mother is 88yrs old n still going strong. As a guitar player myself, i thank both my mom n dad for always having music around us; always instruments lying around! Love everything about music. When it gets deep in your soul n blood, its there to never go away
My dad just passed and he loved this song, he would sing it in church. Rest now dad, I love you and miss you.

I just went through your collection of music and I noticed your daughter Dawn was born in 1968 ....I too was born June 1968. I am 49 now. Am so sad. God Bless you all. I weep when I hear this song, as it reminds me of my darling Dad. I lost him in a road accident in 1992 when I was 24 yrs and since been a tearful shattered person.
Exactly 10 years I lost my mother but it still hurts. This song brings memories of her flooding back. May God rest her soul and those of the other saints like Jim Reeves.
I am aging and I think of "The Supper Time" Are you getting ready? Who have you believed and trusted when such hour arrive for you? There is One True God. Don't rest until you have Him as your God
I sang this song at my Great Uncle Otie's funeral. I was about 14. I could not do the last verse and chorus...I kept choking up. But I will always remember that

When you want to cast your uneducated opinion upon people, make sure your grammar is on point. Otherwise, you look like a complete ass, and you do! Honestly, nobody cares what you think. Spend some time brushing up your communication skills...they are in need.
@Rex TexasAggie please point out my grammar errors
for some reason this is under my wife's name but in the one who commented ray hewitt

Yes I am, no offense was taken. I appreciate the sentiment of the message. To be fair, my name is uncommon and my picture blurry:)
@mittie rowland Hello Mittie, please forgive me for the gender error on my comment. I am French so sometimes, I still do make some 'faux-pas' while trying to express myself in the English language. May I add that you are a beautiful lady. God bless!
@BarBender Thank you for bringing this mistake to my attention. Mittie is indeed a beautiful lady, no doubts about it. Merci!

My dear daddy said when it's time for him to go home he would say it's suppertime. Missing him so much.
I know what you mean. My Dad always sang it to us. He passed away 4/23/19, just 8 months ago. It touches my to hear it, but makes me cry. My Daddy went to reunite with my Mom, who had died 11/25/2007. I miss them so.
