Come home, come home

Author: Joseph Swain Appears in 241 hymnals Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage First Line: Brethren, while we sojourn here Lyrics: 1 Brethren, while we sojourn here, Fight we must, but should not fear; Foes we have, but we've a Friend; One who loves us to the end; Forward then, with courage go, Long we shall not dwell below; Soon the joyful news will come, "Child, your Father calls; come home." Chorus: Come home, come home, Thy Father calls; come home. Come home, come home, Thy Father calls; come home. 2 In the world a thousand snares Lie to take us unawares; Satan, with malicious art, Watches each unguarded heart; But from Satan's malice free, Saints will soon victorious be; Soon the joyful news will come, "Child, your Father calls; come home." [Chorus] 3 But of all the foes we meet, None so apt to turn our feet, None betray us into sin, Like the foes we have within; Yet let nothing spoil your peace, Christ will also conquer these; Then the joyful news will come, "Child, your Father calls; come home." [Chorus] Used With Tune: COME HOME

Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move

Author: William Hunter Appears in 330 hymnals Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move, Bound for the land of bright glory above; Angelic choristers sing as I come, "Joyfully, joyfully, haste to thy home." Soon shall I pass from this dark vale of woe, Home to the land of the righteous I'll go; Pilgrim and stranger, no more shall I roam, Joyfully, joyfully, resting at home. 2 Friends fondly cherished now sleep in the ground, But they'll awake when the last trump shall sound, Loosed from Death's fetters, and upward we'll soar, Joyfully meeting to part nevermore. Sounds of sweet melody fall on the ear; Harps of the blessed, your voices I'll hear Filling with harmony heaven's high dome, "Joyfully, joyfully, haste to thy home." 3 Death with his weapons of war has laid low Many a pilgrim who feared not the blow; Jesus has broken the bars of the tomb; Joyfully, joyfully, will they come home. Bright will the morn of eternity dawn, Death shall be banished, his scepter be gone; Joyfully, then, shall I witness his doom, Joyfully, joyfully, safely at home. Used With Tune: HERE IS NO REST
