The home beyond the shadows,
Where all is calm and still;
Where holy joy and gladness
The troubled heart shall fill:
I’m longing for the Homeland,
With golden gates so fair,
|:That ever stand wide open
To welcome pilgrims there.:|
The home beyond the shadows,
Beyond the crystal sea;
The home of many mansions,
Where rest remains for me;
I’m waiting, only waiting,
Its hallowed peace to share;
|:I long its gates to enter,
With loved ones gathered there.|
The home beyond the shadows
Hath neither pain nor tears;
But through its cloudless regions
The Light of Life appears—
Dispelling every sorrow,
Removing every care,
|:And giving rest eternal
To all who enter there.:|
