Our Home at Last

Death can not cause our souls to fear

Author: Mrs. G. W. Linton
Published in 2 hymnals


Representative Text

1 Death can not cause our souls to fear
If Jesus be our trust;
Though here our path be dark and drear,
He'll bring us home at last.

Chorus:
Home, home, home,
Our heav'nly home at last;
Home, home, home,
Bright heaven, our home at last.

2 Faith looks beyond the bounds of time
To that celestial place,
Where Jesus reigns our priest and king,
Enthroned in righteousness. [Chorus]

3 Cease then, our wand'ring thoughts, to roam
From him whose love's so great;
May we all seek that heav'nly home,
And dwell in glory bright. [Chorus]
