Representative Text

1 No tears in yonder home,
There, all serene and bright,
Sorrow and pain are o'er,
Sickness and death—no more;
No tears, no tears, but peace and light.

2 Blest home beyond death's sea,
What sacred pleasures there!
There—on the golden street
Kindred and friends to greet;
Blest home, blest home, so bright and fair!

3 Jesus, my all in all,
Keep me till life is past;
Though shadows 'round me fall,
No darkness can appall;
No fears, no fears within thy fold.
