1 Although to me no quiet home
In this world may be giv’n,
So sweetly still the whispers come,
I have a home in Heav’n;
A home for me was purchased there
With Christ’s own precious blood,
That I with Him its bliss might share
Forever with my God.
2 And if forever with my God
My raptured soul shall be,
When o’er this weary path I’ve trod,
What are its toils to me?
No more I’ll grieve at present pain,
But onward urge my way,
Until the heav’nly bliss I gain,
Which lasts thro’ endless day.
3 Though weary oft and much oppressed,
Because of trials sore,
I’ll on His blessèd promise rest,
Till trials are no more,
And when eternal years have fled,
Still all my song shall be,
To Him who for my ransom bled,
To Him who died for me.
