Lyrics
Ah, this heart is void and chill,
'Mid earth's noisy thronging;
For my Father's mansion, still
Earnestly I'm longing.
Soon the glorious day will dawn,
Heav'nly pleasures bringing;
Night will be exchanged for morn,
Sighs give place to singing.
Oh, to b at home, and gain,
All for which we're sighing,
From all earthly want and pain
To be swiftly flying.—
Blessed home! oh, blessed home!
There no more to sever;
Soon we'll meet around the throne
Praising God forever.
Refrain:
Looking home, looking home,
T'ward the heav'nly mansion,
Jesus hath prepared for me,
In His Father's kingdom.
'Mid earth's noisy thronging;
For my Father's mansion, still
Earnestly I'm longing.
Soon the glorious day will dawn,
Heav'nly pleasures bringing;
Night will be exchanged for morn,
Sighs give place to singing.
Oh, to b at home, and gain,
All for which we're sighing,
From all earthly want and pain
To be swiftly flying.—
Blessed home! oh, blessed home!
There no more to sever;
Soon we'll meet around the throne
Praising God forever.
Refrain:
Looking home, looking home,
T'ward the heav'nly mansion,
Jesus hath prepared for me,
In His Father's kingdom.
