We're are homeward bound;
Though often tempted, yet onward We 90,
We're homeward bound.
Trials and crosses we cheerfully bear,
Tolls and temptations expecting to share,
We hasten forward content with the fare,
We're homeward bound.
Earth with its triHes, we all have resigned,
We're homeward bound;
Heaven. with its glories, We shortly shall find,
We're homeward bound.
Sinful amusements no longer are dear,
., how deiusive and vain they appear,
While to our home we are drawing so near,
We're hOmewsrd bound.
Wen tell the world as we Journey along,
We're homeward bound;
Try to persuade them to enter uur throng,
We're homeward bound.
Come. trembling sinner, forlorn and opprest,
Join number, o come and be blest,
Journey with US to the mansion OF rest,
We're homewsrd bound.
Soon well be singing if faithful We prove,
We're home Mt last!
Sounding in triumph in mansions above,
We're home ut last.
Soon as our tolls and temptations are DER,
Tn to aur home with the blest We shall soar,
q how we'll shout rs we enter the door,
We're home at last.
