137. I'm Going Home

1 My heav'nly home is bright and fair,
Nor pain nor death can enter there;
Its glitt'ring tow'rs the sun out shine,
That heav'nly mansion shall be mine.

Chorus:
I'm going home, I'm going home,
I'm going home to die no more;
To die no more, to die no more,
I'm going home to die no more.

2 My Father's house is build on high,
Far, far above the starry sky;
When from this earthly prison free,
That heav'nly mansion mine shall be. [Chorus]

3 Let others seek a home below,
Which flames devour, or waves o'erflow;
Be mine a happier lot to own
A heav'nly mansion near the throne. [Chorus]
