Author: Grace Glenn Hymnal: SGCN1877 #24 (1877) Tune Title: [Home from work the laborers] First Line: Home from work the laborers Refrain First Line: Home, sweet home Lyrics: 1 Home from work the laborers
Come when day is ending,
When the dusky shades of night
With the light are blending.
[Refrain]
Home, sweet home,
Rest from weary labors
Home, sweet home,
How calm our rest shall be.
2 Home in quiet to enjoy
Blessings without number;
Then to trust the Father's care
O'er their peaceful slumber. [Refrain]
3 If so sweet the calm repose
Of an earthly even,
What when all life's labors close,
Will it be in heaven. [Refrain] Languages: English
Rest at Home
