There is a blessèd home,

1.

There is a blessèd home,

Beyond this land of woe,

Where trials never come,

Nor tears of sorrow flow;

Where faith is lost in sight,

And patient hope is crown’d,

And everlasting light

Its glory throws around.

2.

There is a land of peace,

Good Angels know it well;

Glad songs that never cease

Within its portals well;

Around its glorious throne

Ten thousand saints adore

Christ, with the Father One,

And Spirit, evermore.

3.

Oh joy all joys beyond,

To see the Lamb Who died,

For ever there enthroned

For ever glorified

To give to Him the praise

Of every triumph won,

And sing through endless days

The great things He hath done.

4.

Look up, ye saints of God,

Nor fear to tread below

The path your Savior trod

Of daily toil and woe;

Wait but a little while

In uncomplaining love

His own most gracious smile

Shall welcome you above.
