1 I have a home in glory;
Dear friends are gathered there;
My Saviour went before me,
A mansion to prepare;
My heart will safely trust Him,
Whatever may befall;
I’m list’ning for His footsteps,
I’m waiting for the call.
Refrain:
Home, sweet home;
In that bright world of song,
Loved ones for me are waiting,
To join the happy throng;
Home, sweet home,
Beyond the Jasper wall,
The pearly gates are open,
I’m waiting for the call.
2 I’ve proved His loving kindness
In ev’ry varies scene;
In desert ways of trouble,
In Elims fresh and green;
My days are wisely ordered
From morn till even fall;
I’m list’ning for His footsteps,
I’m waiting for the call. [Refrain]
3 He led me by His Spirit,
In paths of righteousness,
And prompted me to service,
Some other lives to bless;
Some day I’ll see my Saviour,
The Blessed Lord of all,—
I’m list’ning for His footsteps,
I’m waiting for the call. [Refrain]
