I am at Home in Heaven dear ones,
Oh so happy and so bright,
There is perfect joy and beauty,
In the everlasting light.
 
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing past,
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.
 
Did you wonder why I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh but Jesus’ love illuminated,
Every dark and fearful glade.
 
And He came Himself to meet me,
In that way so hard to tread,
And with Jesus’ arms to lean on
Could I have one doubt or dread?
 
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still,
Try to look beyond earth’s shadows,
Pray to trust Our Father’s will.
 
There is work still waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand
Do it now while life remaineth,
You shall rest in Jesus’ land.
