Tune: | [There's a home for you, a home for me] |
Composer: | Will H. Ruebush |
1 There's a home for you, a home for me
In a fairer, better clime;
It is just across a narrow sea—
Just beyond the hills of time.
Refrain:
Just beyond the hills of time,
Just across the narrow sea,
Where the angels raise ceaseless strains of praise,
There's a home for you and me.
2 Christ, the sinner's friend, who saves by grace,
Now prepares that happy home;
There we all may meet Him face to face,
When on earth we cease to roam. [Refrain]
3 In that home of light our loved ones wait,
Pure as snow and fair as day;
They will meet us at the golden gate,
At the ending of the way. [Refrain]
4 Let us watch and pray and follow Him,
Sweetly singing through the gloam,
Till shall flee away the shadows dim,
And we all reach home, sweet home. [Refrain]
