Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Light in the Valley #193 (1898) Hymnal Title: Light in the Valley First Line: When I see life's golden sunset lighting up the rosy West Lyrics: 1 When I see life's golden sunset lighting up the rosy West,
When the shadows backward o'er my way are cast;
I shall look upon that moment as the one supremely blest,
I'm going home at last.
Chorus:
I'm going home at last,
I'm going home at last;
When my work on earth is ended and my race below is run,
I'm going home at last.
2 Tho' the road at times was weary, over which my feet have trod,
Tho' thro' many tribulations I have passed;
Yet I soon will reach my mansion in the city of our God,
I'm going home at last. [Chorus]
3 When I pass down thro' the valley and the shadow of the dead,
To my blessed Saviour's hand I will hold fast
He has promised to go with me, so my soul will have no dread,
I'm going home at last. [Chorus] Topics: Revival Languages: English Tune Title: [When I see life's golden sunset lighting up the rosy West]
