The Call of the Homeland

Author: Annie L. Pinfold Hymnal: KS1914 #51 (1914) First Line: Afar seems the Homeland and faint comes its call Refrain First Line: After our night of sorrow Lyrics: 1 Afar seems the Homeland and faint comes its call When over the pilgrim the wild surges roll; Yet visions of glory oft shine over all And whisper of hope to the storm-beaten soul. Chorus: After our night of sorrow Cometh Eternity’s morrow; After the turmoil of sin and strife, Peace and the bliss of immortal life. Ever the day draws nearer, Ever the promise grows dearer; After the shadows of earth are past We’ll reach the dear Homeland at last. 2 Strange echoes float ‘round us amid the wild gale, The strains of an anthem that rings wild and high; And ever the joy-notes with rapture we hail, The song of the ransomed we’ll swell by and by. [Chorus] 3 We rest in the hollow of God’s mighty hand; Secure in His love we have nothing to fear; For tempest and sunshine obey His command, His voice in the darkness will bring us good cheer.
