At Home

Representative Text

1 There is a home a beautiful mansion,
Will to each weary pilgrim be given,
Those who will trust their loving Redeemer,
They shall have all the treasures of Heaven.

Refrain:
We are now crossing o'er the dark river,
Jesus is pleading with us to come,
When we pass through the heavenly portals,
There we will be forever at home.

2 Let us press on and work in the vineyard
Jesus requires no worldly renoun,
If we are true to live in the harvest,
We shall receive a beautiful crown. [Refrain]

3 Soon, we shall see the beautiful mansion,
In our white robes upon the bright strand,
There with our friends and all of our loved ones,
If we obey our Saviour's command. [Refrain]
