Author: John M. Henson Hymnal: Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) #44 (1997) First Line: Earthly wealth and fame May never come to me Lyrics: 1 Earthly wealth and fame
May never come to me,
And a palace fair,
Here mine may never be;
But let come what may,
If Christ for me doth care,
Anywhere is home,
If He is only there.
Anywhere is home,
Let come and go what may,
Anywhere I roam,
He keeps me all the way;
So for His dear sake,
My cross I'll meekly bear,
Anywhere is home,
If Christ, my Lord, is there.
2 Oft I'm tossed about
And driven by the foe,
Sad within, without
Wherever I may go;
But I press along
Still looking up in pray'r,
For it's home, sweet home,
If Christ is only there.
Anywhere is home,
Let come and go what may,
Anywhere I roam,
He keeps me all the way;
So for His dear sake,
My cross I'll meekly bear,
Anywhere is home,
If Christ, my Lord, is there.
3 I will labor on
till I am called away,
'Till the morn shall dawn
Of that eternal day;
Looking unto Him,
Who keeps me in His care,
Anywhere is home,
If Christ, my Lord is there.
Anywhere is home,
Let come and go what may,
Anywhere I roam,
He keeps me all the way;
So for His dear sake,
My cross I'll meekly bear,
Anywhere is home,
If Christ, my Lord, is there.
