128. Beautiful Home

1 There is a home eternal,
Beautiful and bright,
Where sweet joys supernal
Never are dimmed by night;
White-robed angels are singing
Ever around the bright throne;
When, Oh, when shall I see thee,
Beautiful, beautiful home?

Refrain:
Home, beautiful home,
Bright, beautiful home;
Home, home of our Saviour,
Bright, beautiful home!

2 Flow’rs forever are springing
In that home so fair,
Thousands of children are singing
Praises to Jesus there;
How they swell the glad anthems
Ever around the bright throne;
When, Oh, when shall I see thee,
Beautiful, beautiful home? [Refrain]

3 Soon shall I join that anthem,
Far beyond the sky;
Jesus became my ransom,
Why should I fear to die?
Soon my eyes shall behold him
Seated upon the bright throne;
Then, Oh, then shall I see thee,
Beautiful, beautiful home? [Refrain]
