Lyics"LAND ahead!" Its fruits are waving
O'er the hills of fadeless green;
And the living waters laying
Shores where heavenly forms are seen.
CHO.-Rocks and storms I'll fear no more,
When on that eternal shore:
Drop the anchor; furl the sail:
I am safe within the vail.
Onward bark: the cape I'm rounding:
See the blessed wave their hands;
Hear the harps of God resounding
From the bright immortal bands.
Now we're safe from all temptation,
All the storms of life are past:
Praise the Rock of our salvation:
We are safe at home at last.
