Lyrics
Chorus
O for a home with God, a place in His courts to rest, Sure in a safe abode with Jesus and the blest; Rest for a weary soul once redeemed by the savior's love, Where I'll be true and whole and live with my God above.
Verse 1
Walking alone at eve and viewing the skies afar, Bidding the darkness come to welcome each silver star; I have a great delight in the wonderful scenes above, God in His power and might is showing His truth and love.
Verse 2
Sitting alone at eve and dreaming the hour away, Watching the shadows falling now at the close of day; God in His mercy comes with His word He is drawing near, Spreading His love and truth around me and everywhere.
Verse 3
Closing my eyes at eve and thinking of heaven's grace, Longing to see my Lord, yes, meeting Him face to face; Trusting Him as my all wheresoever my footsteps roam, Pleading with Him to guide me on to the spirit's home!
