Home At Last

Hey All, it has been a long time since I have posted a song on here.
This song was written by a friend of mine, Buddy Durrett. I never recorded it until now, He passed away from covid a few years back.
The song is called "Home at last".

I mainly use real band and then edit the instruments in my DAW, Samplitude ProX8.
The backing vocals were record by Dirk van der Merwe (Airgigs) He always does a great job on backing vocals!

The instruments used were:
RT3549 Bass, Electric, AmericanaShuffleSteveAB Sw.WAV
RealDrums-NashvilleRadioShuffle^2-Stck,Hat.WAV
RT3174 Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm CampfireSwing Sw 120.WAV
RT3702 Guitar, Electric, Rhythm AmericanaShuffleBrent Sw 120.WAV
RT1283 Guitar, Electric, Soloist CountryShuffleBrent Sw 120.WAV
RT617 Pedal Steel BG
RT674 Organ, B3, Background Blues Roadhouse Ev 120.WAV

I pray that I did his song justice smile any comments are much appreciated on what to change and what to keep.

Here is the link for a quick listen:
Home At Last


LYRICS:
Verse One:
Oh I've Been Walking Through Life Day By Day
Always Keeping To That Straight And Narrow Way
I Have Been Watching And Waiting Hallelujah For That Day
When I'll Be Going Home At Last, Home At Last

Verse Two:
Yes I Know When That Final Trumpet Sounds
All The Saints Are Raising Joyous From The Ground
In Faithful Answer To That Blast, Standing Firm And Holding Fast
We Will Join Them Home At Last, Home At Last

Chorus:
Home At Last, Glory, Glory, I'll Be Going Home At Last
I'll Be Leaving All My Troubles In The Bygone Past
I've Been Waiting Patiently, To See The One Who Set Me Free
When I'm Home At Last, I'm Home At Last

Verse Three:
One Day, He'll Take Me There Dear Lord.
And I Will Step Across From Jordans Stormy Shore.
Lead By The Ones That Have Gone On, They've Been Waiting There So Long
For Me To Join Them, Home At Last, Home At Last

Chorus:
Home At Last, Glory, Glory, I'll Be Going Home At Last
I'll Be Leaving All My Troubles In The Bygone Past.
I've Been Waiting Patiently, To See The One Who Set Me Free
When I'm Home At Last, I'm Home At Last

Home At Last, Glory, Glory, I'll Be Going Home At Last
I'll Be Leaving All My Troubles In The Bygone Past.
I've Been Waiting Patiently, To See The One Who Set Me Free
When I'm Home At Last, I'm Home At Last

I've Been Waiting Patiently, To See The One Who Set Me Free
When I'm Home At Last, I'm Home At Last

When I'm Home At Last, I'm Home At Last
When My Stay Here Is Over , Home At Last
