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.

Lyrics
My longing heart oft yearns for home!
Oh, when shall I be there?
I fain would be on heaven's shore,
With God's elect forevermore
In blessed harmony.

In heav'n there will no parting be
And tears have there no place.
There we'll rejoice with jubilee,
Immersed in love as in a sea
Before God's holy face.

In heaven dwells the countless throng,
That blood-bought, white-robed band,
Which endlessly God's praise prolongs
Thru wonderful and sweet new songs
And harps within their hands.

So many are already there,
Fain would I join them now!
But I will meekly heed God's Word,
And forward on my pathway tread
T'ward that eternal Home!
