Representative Text

1 O weary one, on time’s rough sea,
Lift up thy heart and voice;
Eternal shores are beck’ning thee;
Arise, thou, and rejoice.

Refrain:
Farewell to sorrow and pain!
Farewell to sin and its reign!
We’ll soon be at Home, never more to roam;
We’re almost—ALMOST HOME!

2 Angelic music fills the breeze;
Behold the gates ajar,
And Eden’s lovely fruits and trees!
We soon shall cross the bar. [Refrain]

3 Celestial hosts are clothed in white;
Arise! oh shout and sing!
There’s no more night; the Lamb’s the Light;
Hosannah to our King! [Refrain]
