Mid Scenes of confusion and creature complaints




'Mid Scenes of Confusion
and Creature Complaints
How sweet to my soul
is communion with saints!
To find at the banquet
of mercy there's room.
And feel in the presence
of Jesus at home!

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
for glory[heaven] my home.



Sweet bonds that unite
all the children of peace,
And thrice blessed Jesus,
whose love cannot cease;
Though oft from the presence
in sadness I roam,
I long to behold thee in glory at home;

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
for glory[heaven] my home.



I sigh from this body
of sin to be free,
Which hinders my joy
and communion with thee;
Though now my temptations
like billows may foam,
All, all will be peace
when I'm with thee

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
for glory[heaven] my home.



While here in the valley
of conflict I stay,
O give me submission
and strength as my day;
In all my afflictions
to thee I would come,
Rejoicing in hope
of my glorious home.

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
for glory[heaven] my home.



Whate'er thou deniest,
O give me thy grace,
The Spirit's sure witness
to wait at thy throne,
Indulge me with patience
to wait at thy throne,
And find even now
a foretaste of my home;

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
for glory[heaven] my home.



I long, dearest Lord,
in thy beauties to shine,
No more as an exile
in sorrow to pine;
And in thy dear image arise
from the tomb,
With glorified millions
to praise thee at home;

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
for glory[heaven] my home.

Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Prepare me, dear Savior,
