Going Home By-and-by

Author: A. T. G. Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: We have heard the glad tidings of joy Lyrics: 1 We have heard the glad tidings of joy, And our voices we lift upon high; Here's a-dieu to each vain earthly toy-- We are all going home by-and-by. Refrain: Going home by-and-by, going home by-and-by, When the shadows shall come nevermore; Going home by-and-by, going home by-and-by, To our rest on that beautiful shore. 2 Long and weary the journey has been; In our path has been many a sigh; From this dark land of sorrow and sin We are all going home by-and-by. [Refrain] 3 With the lost ones of earth we shall meet When the trumpet of God rends the sky; Clad in garments of beauty complete, They are all going home by-and-by. [Refrain] 4 Hasten, Saviour, thy coming we pray, Bid thy saints upward mount to the sky; Usher in glad eternity's day, Come and gather us home by-and-by. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [We have heard the glad tidings of joy]
