<div class="lyrics">
|
|
<p>Whate’er my afflictions or trials may be,<br>
|
|
I want to live faithful, my Savior, to Thee,<br>
|
|
To walk as a Christian, my temper subdued,<br>
|
|
And feel, through Thy mercy, in spirit renewed.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Home, home, home, sweet, sweet home,<br>
|
|
I know there is rest with Thy people at home,<br>
|
|
I know there is rest with Thy people at home.</p>
|
|
<p>Though dark is my path in this valley of sin,<br>
|
|
O give me the light of Thy comfort within,<br>
|
|
To shield me from danger wherever I roam,<br>
|
|
And guide me at last to Thy people at home.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>I want to be humble, resigned to Thy will,<br>
|
|
In sunshine or tempest to follow Thee still,<br>
|
|
Yet, lured by the tempter, how often I roam,<br>
|
|
Forgetful, alas! of my God and my home.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>No parent so tender, so friend is so dear,<br>
|
|
No voice like my Savior’s can banish my fear;<br>
|
|
By faith in Thy promise to Thee I will come,<br>
|
|
O, give me a place with Thy people at home.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>When shall I rise from this desert of gloom,<br>
|
|
Beyond the deep shadows that darken the tomb,<br>
|
|
In Eden, dear Eden, transported to roam,<br>
|
|
And sing hallelujahs with angels at home?</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
