Author: Phoebe Cary Hymnal: Living Hymns #250 (1890) First Line: One sweetly solemn thought Refrain First Line: Home, home, sweet, sweet home Lyrics: 1 One sweetly solemn thought Comes to me o'er and o'er,-- I'm nearer home to-day Than I ever have been before. Nearer my Father's house, Where the many mansions be; Nearer the great white throne; Nearer the crystal sea; Refrain: Home, home, sweet, sweet home,-- Prepare me, dear Saviour, for glory, my home. 2 Nearer the bound of life, Where we lay our burdens down; Nearer leaving the cross; Nearer gaining-the crown; But lying darkly between, Winding down thro' the night, Is the deep and unknown stream That leads at last to-the light. [Refrain] 3 Father, perfect my trust! Strengthen the might of-my faith; Let me feel as I would when I stand On the rock of the shore of death: Feel as I would when my feet Are slipping over-the brink For it may be, I'm never home-- Nearer now than-I think! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [One sweetly solemn thought]
