Just Over the Way Is Home

1 There is a home prepared above,
It is for you and for me,
Where all is joy and peace and love,
Just over the way is home.

Chorus:
My home, sweet home,
That home for you and for me,
My home, sweet home,
Just over the way is home.

2 Let's work and sing and watch and pray,
For o'er the way is sweet home,
It's only just a little way,
Just over the way is home. [Chorus]

3 We'll praise His name while here we stay,
For o'er the way is sweet home,
The darkness will be turned to day,
Just over the way is home. [Chorus]

4 Our toils on earth will soon be done,
For o'er the way is sweet home,
Our joys will then have just begun,
Just over the way is home. [Chorus]

5 How sweet 'twill be when we get there,
Just o'er the way is sweet home,
What joys o'er there we soon shall share,
Just over the way is home. [Chorus]
