The Cyber Hymnal ‎#12325

12325. Beautiful Home Above

1 There is a home, a peaceful home,
A home of joy and love;
And they that bear the cross below
Shall wear the crown above.

Refrain:
My home, sweet home,
My beautiful home above,
My home, sweet home,
My beautiful home above!

2 No night shall dim that glorious home,
For Jesus is the light;
And mourning pilgrims here below
Shall there be clad in white. [Refrain]

3 With palms of victory in their hands
They with the ransomed sing;
"All praise to Him who washed us white,
Our Savior, God and king!" [Refrain]
