BEAUTIFUL HOME.

Far away in the land of the pure and bright Is the city of God, with its golden light; Oh, there is my home, and forever to stand With the shining ones of that better land!
CHORUS.—Oh, beautiful home! Oh, beautiful home! Where beautiful saints surround the white throne; How I long to be there, and forever to stand With the shining ones of that better land!
Oh, that beautiful home we are nearing now, Where a crown of bright glory encircles each brow; Where the tree of life grows on that beautiful shore; Where flowers shall blossom to fade no more!
Cho.—Oh, beautiful home, etc.
With palms, and bright crowns, and robes of light, We shall roam the fair fields with eternal delight; We shall join in the song of the purified band, With the shining ones of that better land.
Cho.—Oh, beautiful home, etc.
Then come, brother pilgrim, let love freely flow As unto that beautiful home we shall go; For Jesus hath said we must join hand in hand, If ever we enter that better land.
Cho.—Oh, beautiful home, etc.
My soul is now weary of living below, To the home of the purified saints I will go, With Jesus my Saviour forever to stand With the shining ones of that better land.
Cho.—Oh, beautiful home, etc.
