Going Home

By Mrs. M. Sollars

By Mrs. M. Sollars
GOING home! No word so cheering To weary pilgrim's ear. How with joy my heart grows lighter As the happy time draws near!
Going home to meet the loved ones, Meet my Saviour face to face, Where the sins which grieve my spirit, Never once may find a place.
Earthland, fare thee well forever, Till my Saviour shall restore, And the innocence of Eden Shall return to earth once more.
Messengers of light, speak quickly, Quickly over land and sea; Tell them of the Saviour's coming Soon to make His loved ones free.
Only pilgrims here, and strangers, This is not our happy home. We are seeking for an entrance To a city yet to come.
O, bear up a little longer! All things tell us He is near. These are words like sweetest music Falling softly on my ear.
