Wandering Home

Author: E. A. Barnes Hymnal: The Crowning Day #50 (1894) First Line: We are wandering home as the time glideth by Lyrics: 1 We are wandering home as time glideth by, And weaveth its garlands of years; To a beautiful home, and better by far Than the one in this valley of tears. Refrain: Wandering home, wandering home, Soon we shall wander no more; And, oh! may we meet each other at last, At home on “the heavenly shore.” 2 We are wandering home by the same old way Our fathers before us have trod, To the shadow of death and the city beyond, The glorious city of God. [Refrain] 3 We are wandering home o’er a stormy plain, Replete with temptation and sin, To a beautiful fold where Jesus awaits To welcome each wanderer in. [Refrain] 4 We are wandering home, yes, wandering home, But soon we shall wander no more; And, oh! may we meet each other at last, At home on “the heavenly shore.” [Refrain] Tune Title: [We are wandering home as time glideth by]
