121. Happy Home

1 There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign,
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.

Refrain:
Happy home, happy home,
Beyond beyond the glowing sky;
Happy home, happy home,
Where pleasures never die.

2 There everlasting spring abides,
And never with’ring flowers;
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
This heavenly land from ours. [Refrain]

3 Sweet fields, beyond the swelling flood,
Stand dressed in living green;
So to the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan rolled between. [Refrain]
