OVER THERE.

I long for that beautiful home over there, On the banks of the river of life; I long for the fields ever blooming and fair, There's no sorrow, no sighing, no strife.
CHORUS:
'Tis a beautiful home of delight over there, And by faith o'er its bright fields I roam; Come, favor my flight, holy angels; oh! bear Me away to that beautiful home.
The glorified saints are at home over there; They once suffered and toiled here below; Exalted to Heaven its glories they share, Sin nor sorrow nor death ever know.
CHORUS:
They'll go to that home of delight over there, There the city is glorious and bright, And crowns of the victor in triumph will wear, And the God of the just is its light.
CHORUS:
In that happy home of delight over there, We shall dwell with the prophets of old; We'll meet with our loved ones immortal and fair, In that glorious city of gold.
CHORUS:
I long to be gone to that home over there, To rejoice with the saints evermore; And when I am saved in that home over there, I will meet them to part nevermore.
CHORUS:
—Sel.
