The Home-Coming

Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Songs of the Century #13 (1900) First Line: When we leave earth's shore Refrain First Line: We are going in the morning bright and fair Lyrics: 1 When we leave earth’s shore To return no more, We will sail for that city bright and fair; Where our friends we’ll meet, And our loved ones greet, At the great home-coming over there. Refrain: We are going in the morning bright and fair, To the great home-coming over there; We shall hear the music chime Of the heavenly choir divine At the great home-coming over there! 2 When our friends passed o’er To that unseen shore, How our hearts were filled with deep despair! But beyond death’s sea We’ll united be At the great home-coming over there. [Refrain] 3 There no pain we’ll know, There no tears will flow, In that land we’ll never know a care; But we’ll hand in hand With our loved ones stand, At the great home-coming over there. [Refrain] 4 So we’ll quell our fears And we’ll dry our tears, And we’ll watch for the morning bright and fair, Then, through God’s own grace, We will fill our place At the great home-coming over there. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When we leave earth's shore]
