VERSE 2 We are trav-'lling home to God, In the way the fa-thers trod; They are hap-py now, and we Soon their hap-pi-ness shall see. VERSE 3 Glo-ry be to Je-sus' name, Glo-ry be to Christ the Lamb; Through thy blood were we re-deemed, When we just-ly were con-demned. VERSE 4 O ye ban-ished seed, be glad! Christ our ad-vo-cate is made; Us to save, our flesh as-sumes; Broth-er to our soul be-comes. VERSE 5 Shout, ye lit-tle flock and blest; You on Je-sus' throne shall rest; There your seat is now pre-pared, There's your king-dom and re-ward. VERSE 6 Lift your eyes, ye sons of light, Zi-on's cit-y is in sight; There our end-less home shall be, There our Lord we soon shall see. VERSE 7 Fear not, breth-ren; joy-ful stand On the bor-ders of your land; Je-sus Christ, your Fa-ther's Son, Bids you un-dis-mayed go on. VERSE 8 Lord! o-bed'-ent-ly we go, Glad-ly lea-ving all be-low: Only thou our lea-der be, And we still will fol-low thee! VERSE 9 For thee all things we for-sake, We in bet-ter would par-take; We to grea-ter bles-sings soar, Unto joys for ev-er-more. VERSE 10 Thi-ther, Lord, us quick-ly bring, There we with thy host will sing; Safe-ly ha-vened once in bliss, We will praise thy right-eous-ness. VERSE 11 Dai-ly us pre-pare and fit, On thy ho-ly throne to sit! More and more a-dorn thy seed, Meet to tri-umph with our Head. VERSE 12 Seal our love, our la-bours end, Let us to thy bliss as-cend; Let us to thy king-dom come; Lord, we long to be at home.
