Nearing the Homeland

Author: Lola L. Seelye Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4506 First Line: In Heaven's fair portals they're waiting for me Refrain First Line: Nearing the homeland, fair haven of rest Lyrics: 1. In Heaven’s fair portals they’re waiting for me, Where sickness and sorrow are o’er; Where hope’s brightest dream a fulfillment will find On the bright, golden heavenly shore. Refrain Nearing the homeland, fair haven of rest, Joy for the sad ones who weep; Our anchor we’ll cast, we’re nearing the port, No more on the wild, restless deep. 2. We think of the rest, of the people of God, That waits all the faithful and true; Our travel-stained garments will there be exchanged For a beautiful garment of new. [Refrain] 3. And there, face to face, our dear Savior we’ll meet, The veil shall be taken away; No night dims the brightness our eyes shall behold In that land that is fairer than day. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [In Heaven's fair portals they're waiting for me]
