Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.976
First Line: My heart's in the Home-land, far, far o'er the tide,
My heart's in the Home-land, far, far o'er the tide,
Where those who are faithful shall ever abide ;
My heart's in the Home-land, that region so fair,
Where loved ones are waiting to welcome me there.
My heart's ... in the Home-land,
That region, that region so fair ; . . .
My heart's ... in the Home-land, . . .
My Saviour, my Saviour is there. . .
2 My heart's in the Home-land, and why should I fear ?
When labour is ended, a voice I shall hear,
That calls to a mansion where love never dies,
To yonder fair region beyond the blue skies.
3 My heart's in the Home-land, its valleys and hills,
Its sunshine with gladness my whole being thrills ;
I know some glad morning my spirit will soar
Away to the Home-land, and rest evermore.
