Waiting for Me

Author: W. C. Martin Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Have you heard of that heavenly home Refrain First Line: Where Jesus is waiting for me Lyrics: 1 Have you heard of that heavenly home, Just beyond the rough wilds there we roam. Where the angels of light, And the saints robed in white, Lift their voices in song ‘round the throne? Refrain: Where Jesus is waiting for me, Where Jesus is waiting for me, In those mansions so fair He has gone to prepare, Where Jesus is waiting for me. 2 How I long for that beautiful home, Just beyond the dark vale and the tomb! For my loved ones are there In those palaces fair, They are waiting for me by the throne. [Refrain] 3 I will welcome the dawn of the day, When the trumpet shall call me away To my sweet, peaceful rest, In the home of the blest, In the light of that radiant throne. [Refrain] Scripture: John 14:1 Used With Tune: [Have you heard of that heavenly home]
