339. I'm Going Home

1 My heav'nly home is bright and fair;
Nor pain nor death can enter there;
Its glitt'ring tow'rs the sun outshine;
That heav'nly mansion shall be mine.

Refrain:
I'm going home, I'm going home,
I'm going home to die no more!
To die no more, To die no more,
I'm going home to die no more!

2 My Father's house is built on high,
Far, far above the starry sky;
When from this earthly prison free,
That heav'nly mansion mine shall be. [Refrain]

3 Let others seek a home below,
Which flames devour, or waves o'erflow;
Be mine a happier lot to own
A heavenly mansion near the throne. [Refrain]
