THE HOME-LAND.

By Llewellyn A. Morrison

BY LLEWELLYN A. MORRISON.
Land of delight and splendor! Beautiful home above! When shall my weary spirit Rest in thy perfect love?
Chorus—
Jesus, my Saviour, guide me; Lead thou my spirit on; In the white throne-light hide me Safe, when the toil is done.
Oft, o’er the halcyon meadows, Hear I the vesper song, Low in the twilight shadows Hymned by the ransomed throng.
Heaven, with its joys eternal, Heaven will be one day mine; Safe in its realms supernal, I shall have life divine.
Here, mid the burdens lowly, Serve I in pain and strife; There, in the home-land holy, I shall have perfect life.
