Representative Text

1 Savior, thy word a lamp shall be,
Guiding my feet in the narrow way;
Lighting the path that leads to thee,
Up to the realms of endless day.

Refrain:
Traveling home, traveling home,
Going wherever my Savior may lead,
Traveling home, traveling home,
Up to the mansions prepared for me.

2 When I am weak and tempted here,
Journeying on to sweet Eden’s land;
Savior, I know, I feel thee near,
Lead thou me on, hold thou my hand. [Refrain]

3 Savior, I tread the heav’nly road,
Looking by faith to my home above;
Soon shall I reach the blest abode,
Where all is peace and joy and love. [Refrain]
