Representative Text

1 Beautiful mansions, Home of the blest,
Land where the faithful ever can rest;
There is my treasure, There shall I be,
Lord, I am weary, Lead me to thee.

Chorus:
Savior, be near me,
Thy sweet voice can cheer me,
Oh Jesus, my Savior,
Lead me to thee.

2 Thou wilt not leave me, Comfortless here,
Why should I doubt thee, What do I fear;
Light in the distance, Breaking I see,
Yet I am weary, Lead me to thee. [Chorus]

3 Jesus I love thee, Dwell in my heart,
Never, O never, From me depart;
Hope like a rainbow, Shining I see,
Yet I am weary, Lead me to thee. [Chorus]
