The Homeland! O the Homeland!
The land of the freeborn!
There’s no night in the Homeland,
But aye the fadeless morn;
I’m sighing for the Homeland,
My heart is aching here;
There is no pain in the Homeland,
To which I’m drawing near;
There is no pain in the Homeland
To which I’m drawing near.
My Lord is in the Homeland,
With angels bright and fair;
There’s no sin in the Homeland,
And no temptation there;
The music of the Homeland
Is ringing in my ears;
And when I think of the Homeland,
My eyes are filled with tears;
And when I think of the Homeland,
My eyes are filled with tears.
My loved ones in the Homeland
Are waiting me to come,
Where neither death nor sorrow
Invades their holy home;
O dear, dear native Country!
O rest and peace above!
Christ bring us all to the Homeland,
Of Thy redeeming love;
Christ bring us all to the Homeland,
Of Thy redeeming love!
Rev. H. R. Haweis
Have you on the Lord believed?
Still there’s more to follow;
Of His grace have you received?
Still there’s more to follow;
Oh, the grace the Father shows!
Still there’s more to follow,
Freely He His grace bestows,
Still there’s more to follow.
Have you felt the Saviour near?
Still there’s more to follow;
Does His blessed presence cheer?
Still there’s more to follow;
Oh, the love that Jesus shows!
Still there’s more to follow,
Freely He His love bestows,
Still there’s more to follow.
Have you felt the Spirit’s power?
Still there’s more to follow;
Falling like the gentle shower?
Still there’s more to follow;
Oh, the power the Spirit shows!
Still there’s more to follow,
Freely He His power bestows,
Still there’s more to follow.
Chorus
More and more, more and more,
Always more to follow,
Oh, His matchless, boundless love!
Still there’s more to follow.
