We come in his name, our Redeemer and Lord,
We come, and rejoice in his excellent word;
Our thanks for his care and protection we give,
And ask him for grace in his service to live.
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
A city beyond the sea, a city beyond the sea;
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
Where at home we forever shall be.
The Lord is our trust, our Defender, and Guide,
The Lord is a Rock where in safety we hide;
The Lord is our shield when the tempter assails,
His truth is our lamp, and its light never fails.
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
A city beyond the sea, a city beyond the sea;
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
Where at home we forever shall be.
We seek for a home, in a mansion above,
That he has prepared in his wonderful love;
A home in the vale and the haven of peace,
A home where the storm and the billow shall cease.
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
A city beyond the sea, a city beyond the sea;
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
Where at home we forever shall be.
O land of the blest! when our journey is passed,
When o'er the dark stream we have anchored at last
All praise to the name of our Saviour and King
With all the redeemed we will joyfully sing.
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
A city beyond the sea, a city beyond the sea;
We are traveling, traveling to a beautiful clime,
Where at home we forever shall be.
