The Pilgrim's Hope.

TUNE.—"Tramp, tramp, tramp."

In our pilgrimage below, We are thinking of the time When our Saviour will descend and take us home; And the tears will fill our eyes, As we near the holy prize,— Oh! we love to talk and sing of that blest home.

CHORUS.

Yes, yes, yes, a home with Jesus, Cheer up, brethren, soon he'll come; And beneath his gentle reign We shall breathe the air of Heaven, Free from sorrow in the saint's eternal home.

But while here we do remain, Let's be strong in Jesus' name, Patient every trial, and bear every cross; He will keep his faithful few, And will guide them safely through, And will crown them his at last in that blest home.

CHORUS.

Home, home, home, a home with Jesus, Cheer up, brethren, soon he'll come, etc.
