This is a song for someone longing to be home in heaven. We anticipate those who've gone on ahead of us expecting our arrival (Mother's there expecting me, Father's waiting too. Lots of folks gathered there, all the friends I knew). When we see it in that light, the thought of eternity with God is not something to be afraid of but it creates in us a desire to so order our lives in God so that heaven is the natural outcome. I happen to believe that can only happen through a living relationship with God through Christ and I believe that's also what the author had in mind.
