Lyrics

Will you meet me in the Home­land,
Shall we both reach Heav’n at last,
When the train­ing days are end­ed,
And life’s jour­neys all are past?

Refrain

Will you meet me there?
Will you meet me there?
’Tis the Sav­ior bids you come;
Will you meet me there?
Will you meet me there?
He can take us safe­ly home.

Will you meet me in the glo­ry,
Shall we both to­ge­ther stand
’Mid the com­pa­ny of saved ones,
In that blood-bought, hap­py band?

Refrain

We are ne­ver sure of meet­ing
Anywhere be­neath the sun,
But we look for glad re­un­ion,
When our earth­ly life is done.

Refrain

He has pro­mised soon to take me
Where the King shall fill my gaze,
Will your voice with mine be blend­ed
In that per­fect hymn of praise?
