36. Beautiful Home

1 There’s a home for the loved ones on high;
And if faithful and true here below,
The Divine One will call from the sky,
And so gladly we homeward will go.

Chorus:
In that beautiful home, that beautiful home,
There the Savior forever is near;
We shall meet, we shall meet,
With the lov’d ones we parted from here.

2 This fair earth and its beauties, IO know,
But ‘tis fairer than thought can conceive
Is the home that the Lord will bestow
On the faithful and just, who believe. [Chorus]

3 There’s a home where the ransom’d ones sing,
And so glorify God round the throne;
There our sorrow forever takes wing,
And all sickness and death are now known. [Chorus]

4 In that beautiful home of the blest,
We shall meet, when all troubles are o’er;
And the poor, broken hearted shall rest
In sweet peace on that heavenly shore. [Chorus]
