Lyrics

Verse 1

If for the prize we have striven, After our labors are o'er, Rest to our souls will be given On the eternal shore.

Verse 2

Yes, a sweet rest is remaining, For the true children of God, Where there will be no complaining, Never a chast'ning rod.

Verse 3

Soon, the bright homeland adorning, We shall behold the glad dawn; Lean on the Lord till the morning, Trust till the night is gone.

Chorus

Home of the soul, (Home of the soul,) beautiful home, (blessed kingdom of light,) there we shall rest, never to roam, Free from all care, (Free from all care,) happy and bright, (and where falleth no night!) Jesus is there, He is the light! Oft, in the storm, (Oft, in the storm,) lonely are we, (we are sighing for Thee,) sighing for home, longing for thee, Beautiful home of the ransomed beside the crystal sea. (the crystal sea.)
