Home, Beautiful Home

Representative Text

1 Home, home, beameth before us!
When, when, shall we be there?
Long, long, here we have wandered,
Burdened with sorrow and care:
Home, home, home, home,
Sorrow breathes not in its air.

2 Home, home, there in thy bowers,
Sweet, sweet music shall swell;
Sin, sin, never can enter
Peace in each bosom shall dwell:
Home, home, home, home,
Peace in each bosom shall dwell.

3 Home, home, rest to the weary,
Peace, peace, to the torn breast;
Hope, hope, hope of the erring;
There in thy bosom we'll rest!
Home, home, home, home,
There will the wanderers rest.

4 Home, home, bliss to the parted;
Friends, friends, meet on its shore;
Here, here, lonely they've left us;
Soon we'll be parted no more:
Home, home, home, home,
Friends will be parted no more.

5 Home, home, let us now hasten,
See, see, angels above!
Hark! hark! now do they call us,
Home to their dwelling of love:
Home, home, home, home,
Home of our Father's kind love.
