775. My Heaven, My Home

1 I look away across the sea,
Where mansions are prepared for me,
And view the shining glory shore,
My heav'n, my home forever more!

2 Then from Mount Pisgah's lofty height,
I see my home and take my flight.
This robe of flesh I'll drop and rise
To seize the everlasting prize.
