Author: T. R. Taylor Hymnal: Gloria Deo #458 (1901) Refrain First Line: Heaven is our home Lyrics: 1 We are but strangers here,
Heaven is our home;
Earth is a desert drear,
Heaven is our home.
Danger and sorrow stand
Round us on every hand,
Heaven is our fatherland,
Heaven is our home.
2 What though the tempests rage?
Heaven is our home;
Short is our pilgrimage,
Heaven is our home.
And Time’s wild wintry blast
Soon shall be overpast;
We shall reach home at last;
Heaven is our home.
3 There at our Saviour’s side,
Heaven is our home;
May we be glorified;
Heaven is our home.
There are the good and blest,
Those we love most and best,
Grant us with them to rest;
Heaven is our home.
4 Grant us to murmur not,
Heaven is our home;
Whate’er our earthly lot,
Heaven is our home.
Grant us at last to stand
There at Thine own right hand,
Jesus, in fatherland;
Heaven is our home. Topics: Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: ST. EDMUND
