1 One by one we’re go­ing home,
Gathering ’round the great white throne;
There we’ll live eter­nal­ly
In our home be­yond the sea.

Refrain:
Home at last b­eyond the sea,
There we’ll with our Sav­ior be,
And we’ll rest for­ev­er­more
On that bright, ce­les­ti­al shore.

2 Father, mo­ther now are there,
Brothers, too, and sis­ters fair;
They are rest­ing glad and free,
In that home be­yond the sea. [Refrain]

3 Kindred, friends have gone be­fore
To that hap­py, gold­en shore;
All their toils and care are past—
They are home, safe home at last. [Refrain]

4 In that home so fair and bright
Jesus is the glo­ri­ous light;
Soon His bless­èd face I’ll see
In my home be­yond the sea. [Refrain]
