1 We are going home, and we may be almost there;
We are going home to the land where Jesus dwells.

Chorus:
Come and join our march to the land, to the land where Jesus dwells,
For his love has prepared a welcome for us
In the land where Jesus dwells.

2 Our troubles will end, and we know we need not fear,
For all will be well in the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus]

3 Let us take up our cross without a murm'ring word,
For it helps us on to the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus]

There's a bright crown in heaven for all who love the Lord,
Reserved safe above in the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus]

5 We will soon bid farewell to sin and sorrow too,
For we're now on the way to the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus]

6 O Lord, bear me safe, death's icy current through,
For 'tis all that divides from the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus]
