A HOME ON HIGH




Beyond the light of setting suns,
Beyond the clouded sky,
Beyond where starlight
fades in night—
I have a home on high.

A mansion there,
not made with hands,
A place prepared for me;
And while God lives,
and angels sing,
That home
my home shall be.



Beyond all pain, beyond all care,
Beyond life’s mystery.
Beyond the range
of time and change—
My home’s reserved for me.

A mansion there,
not made with hands,
A place prepared for me;
And while God lives,
and angels sing,
That home
my home shall be.



Beyond where death’s
dark billows roll,
Beyond these scenes of night,
I look while gladness fills my soul,
To yonder home of light.

A mansion there,
not made with hands,
A place prepared for me;
And while God lives,
and angels sing,
That home
my home shall be.



Swift flying worlds, their nights that roll
Far out on seas of light,
Will bring no darkness to my soul;
My home’s beyond the night.

A mansion there,
not made with hands,
A place prepared for me;
And while God lives,
and angels sing,
That home
my home shall be.



My sins and sorrows,
strifes and fears,
I bid them all farewell,
High up amid th’eternal years,
With Christ, my Lord, to dwell.

A mansion there,
not made with hands,
A place prepared for me;
And while God lives,
and angels sing,
That home
my home shall be.
