Happy home just beyond the dark sea;
I can see its golden splendor thro’ the spray,
There’s a light in the window for me.
Refrain:
There’s a light in the window for me,
There’s a light in the window for me;
O the word of God doth guide
To that home beyond the tide,
’Tis a light in the window for me.
2 O the light of that city is the Lord,
There the King in His glory we’ll see;
And the light to guide us there is His own word,
’Tis a light in the window for me. [Refrain]
3 There are angels of glory in that home,
They are waiting and watching for me;
Sinner, come and go with me, no more to roam,
There’s a light in the window for me. [Refrain]
