Nearer home, nearer home
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1398 (1886) First Line: O'er the hill the sun is setting Lyrics: 1 O'er the hill the sun is setting,
And the eve is drawing on;
Slowly drops the gentle twilight,
For another day is gone.
Gone for aye, its race is over,
Soon the darker shades will come;
Still 'tis sweet to know at even,
We are one day nearer home.
Chorus:
Nearer home, nearer home,
Nearer to our home on high,
To the green fields and the fountains
Of the land beyond the sky.
2 One day nearer, sings the sailor,
As he glides the waters o'er,
While the light is softly dying,
On his distant native shore.
Thus the Christian on Life's ocean,
As his light boat cuts the foam,
In the evening cries with rapture,
"I am one day nearer home!" [Chorus]
3 Worn and weary, oft the pilgrim
Hails the setting of the sun;
For the goal is one day nearer,
And his journey nearer done.
Thus we feel, when o'er Life's desert,
Heart and sandals worn we roam;
As the twilight gathers o'er us,
We are one day nearer home. [Chorus]
4 Nearer home! yes, one day nearer
To our Father's house on high,
To the green fields and the fountains,
Of the land beyond the sky;
For the heavens grow brighter o'er us,
And the lamps hang in the dome,
And our tents are pitched still closer,
For we're one day nearer home. [Chorus]

We are one day nearer home.

Hails the setting of the sun;
For the goal is one day nearer,
And his journey nearly done.
Thus we feel, when o'er life's desert,
Heart and sandal worn, we roam;
As the twilight gathers o'er us,
We are one day nearer home. [Refrain]

Desce o Sol Atrás dos Montes
Author: J. Mcgranahan (1840-1907) Hymnal: Louvores ao Rei #76 (2022) Refrain First Line: Perto do lar, perto do lar Lyrics: 1. Desce o Sol atrás dos montes,
Eis, a tarde já chegou.
Calma e quieta, vem a noite:
Mais um dia se findou,
Já se foi com sua luta,
Logo a escura noite vem,
Mas é doce a lembrança
Que mais perto é o lar de além.
Estribilho:
Perto do lar, perto do lar,
Perto, sim, do lar dos Céus;
Daquele lindo lar com fontes de cristal,
Do país do eterno Deus.
2. Mui cansado o peregrino
Vê do dia o fim chegar.
Do trabalho mui penoso
Outra vez vai descansar.
Tal a vida neste mundo,
Que havemos de passar;
Eis, as sombras da tardinha,
Bem podemos, nós, provar. [Estribilho]
3. Mais um dia na viagem
Para o lar celestial;
Já mais perto está o rio,
Claro como um cristal;
Já o céu se esclarece,
E nós vemos sua luz;
Cada vez mais perto estamos
Das moradas de Jesus. [Estribilho] Languages: Portuguese Tune Title: [Desce o Sol atrás dos montes]
