O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Revelation 22:1,2

Lyrics
Trees of Life in Heav'n are blooming
By the crystal river bright;
There the pilgrim finds his homeland
Far beyond earth's starry night;
And there dwells the holy chorus
Singing praise unto the Lamb;
How I long to journey onward
To that beautiful Homeland!
To that beautiful Homeland!


Here on earth I am a stranger,
Now in fleshly garments dressed,
But above in Heaven's dwelling
Is my Fatherland of rest.
How my soul is greatly longing
Ever with my Lord to be,
With the countless overcomers
There from sin and sorrow free,
There from sin and sorrow free.


Oh that ev'ry weary sinner,
Who is burdened down with care,
For God's grace would make petition,
Seek the Homeland wondrous fair;
For whose heart seeks God's Will ever,
In Christ's blood is purified,
Shall the promised land inherit,
Evermore with Christ abide,
Evermore with Christ abide.


O Lord Jesus, at my ending,
Help me reach my blessed goal!
Steadfast to the end enduring,
Through Thy grace, then take my soul.
How my soul will be rejoicing
There before Thy glorious throne,
With the joyful chorus singing
Praise to Thee, God's holy Son!
Praise to Thee, God's holy Son!
