Home at Last.

By Mary Wakeham

HERE in the world as lone pilgrims we roam, Waiting and watching and longing for home. Often we sigh for the glories untold, Sigh for the city whose streets are of gold.
Feet growing weary of life's toilsome way, Eyes strained to catch the first glimpses of day, Hearts filled with longing the music to hear, Angelic songs falling sweet on the ear.
O, for the clear, placid River of Life, Far, far, beyond the blue vault of the skies, O, in green pastures of Eden to roam, Wanderings over, forever at home.
Far, far beyond the blue vault of the skies, Safe, safely sheltered in fair Paradise, Ever with Jesus, forever at rest; Home, home at last in the land of the blest. MARY WAKEHAM.
