1 No more hunger, no more thirsting,
No more weeping, no more tears,
No more sin, no more temptation,
No more doubting, no more fears;
In that home the Lamb shall find them,
He shall lead them in the way,
Where the living fount is flowing,
And shall wipe all tears away.

Refrain:
Home, home, happy, heavenly home,
Never a sigh or a sorrow shall come to my
Home, home, heavenly home,
Bright, blessed heavenly home.

2 No more longing for the morning,
No more watching for the day,
No more groping in the darkness,
No more mists to clear away;
Morning splendors are eternal,
For in heav’n there is no night;
All unknown are mists and shadows,
For the Lamb he is the light. [Refrain]

3 No more weariness for pilgrims,
No more restless tossings there,
No more sorrow, no more sighing,
No more watching, no more prayer;
Ended every pilgrim’s journey,
They have entered into rest;
Joys eternal! endless praises!
In that homeland of the blest. [Refrain]
