1. Mid scenes of confusion and creature complaints,
How sweet to my soul is communion of saints;
To find at the banquet of mercy there's room,
And feel in the presence of Jesus at home.
Home, home, sweet,
Prepare me, dear Saviour, for heaven my home.

2 Sweet bonds that unite all the children of peace,
And thrice precious Jesus, whose love can not cease!
Tho' oft from thy presence in sadness I roam,
By faith I behold thee in glory at home.
Home, home, sweet,
Prepare me, dear Saviour, for heaven my home.

3 While here in this valley of conflict I stay,
O give me submission, and strength as my day;
In all my afflictions to thee would I come,
Rejoicing in hope of my glorious home.
Home, home, sweet,
Prepare me, dear Saviour, for heaven my home.
