Sweet Land Of Rest, For Thee I Sigh,
When Will The Moment Come,
When I Shall Lay My Armor By,
And Dwell In Peace At Home?

O, This Is Not My Home,
O, This Is Not My Home:
This World’s A Wilderness Of Woe,
This World Is Not My Home.

No Tranquil Joy On Earth I Know,
No Peaceful, Sheltering Dome;
This World’s A Wilderness Of Woe,
This World Is Not My Home.

When By Affliction Sharply Tried,
I View The Gaping Tomb,
Although I Dread Death’s Chilling Tide,
Yet Still I Sigh For Home.

Weary Of Wandering Round And Round
This Vale Of Sin And Gloom,
I Long To Quit The Unhallowed Ground,
And Dwell With Christ At Home.
