Home at last
on heav’nly mountains,
Heard the Come and enter in
;
Saved by life’s fair flowing fountains,
Saved from earthly taint and sin.
Refrain
Home, sweet home,
our home forever;
All the pilgrim journey past;
Welcomed home to wander never,
Saved through Jesus—Home at last.
Free at last from all temptation,
No more need of watchful care;
Joyful in complete salvation,
Giv’n the victor’s crown to wear.
Refrain
Saved to greet on hills of glory
Loved ones we have missed so long;
Saved to tell the sinner’s story,
Saved to sing redemption’s song.
Refrain
Welcomed at the pearly portal,
Ever more a welcome guest;
Welcomed to the life immortal,
In the mansions of the blest.
