LyicsWe're going home,
No more to roam,
No more to sin and sor-row;
No more to wear
The brow of care-
We're going home to-mor-row,
CHO.- We're go-ing home,
We're going home to-morrow;
We're go-ing home,
We're going home to-morrow.
For weary feet,
There waits a street
Of wondrous pave and golden;
For hearts that ache,
The angels wake
The story sweet and olden.-CHO.
For those who sleep,
And those who weep,
Above the portals narrow,
The mansions rise
Beyond the skies-
We're going home to-morrow.-CHO.
O joyful song!
O ransomed throng,
Where sin no more shall sever!
Our King to see,
And, O to be
With him at home forever!-CHO.
