1 When I see life’s golden sunset
Lighting up the rosy west,
When the shadows backward
O’er my way are cast;
I shall look upon that moment
As the one supremely blest,
I’m going home at last.

Refrain:
I’m going home at last,
I’m going home at last;
When my work on earth is ended
And my race below is run,
I’m going home at last.

2 Tho’ the road at times was weary,
Over which my feet have trod,
Tho’ thro’ many tribulations
I have passed;
Yet I soon will reach my mansion
In the city of our God,
I’m going home at last. [Refrain]

3 When I pass down thro’ the valley
And the shadow of the dead,
To my blessèd Savior’s hand
I will hold fast;
He has promised to go with me,
So my soul will have no dread,
I’m going home at last. [Refrain]
