27. My Heavenly Home

1 My home is in the heavenly land,
Where angels bright and fair,
Before the throne of glory stand,
And crowns of vict’ry wear,
And while I labor to secure
A blissful home above,
I have a treasure rich and sure,
‘Tis found in Jesus’ love.

Refrain:
Oh, home, sweet home, so bright and fair,
Oh, happy angels over there,
With them my joy shall be complete,
While resting at the Saviour’s feet.

2 Oft while I journey here below,
Amid the busy throng,
I hear a voice and seem to know
The singer and the song;
For with my pray’r the soft refrain
In holy sweetness blends;
And while I listen to the strain,
A blissful calm descends. [Refrain]
