I'm Going Home
Sacred Harp Singers
Continues after the ad
Farewell, vain world! i'm going home!
My savior smiles and bids me come,
And i don't care to stay here long!
Sweet angels beckon me away,
To sing god's praise in endless day,
And i don't care to stay here long!
(chorus:)
Right up yonder, christians, away up yonder,
O, yes my lord, for i don't care to stay here long.
Continues after the ad
I'm glad that i am born to die,
From grief and woe my soul shall fly,
And i don't care to stay here long!
Bright angels shall convey me home,
Away to new jerusalem,
And i don't care to stay here long!
(chorus:)
Right up yonder, christians, away up yonder,
O, yes my lord, for i don't care to stay here long.
(chorus:)
Right up yonder, christians, away up yonder,
O, yes my lord, for i don't care to stay here long.
