The Lord Be Praised! I'm Homeward Bound

Author: J. Lassen Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #254 (1927) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The Lord be praised! I'm homeward bound, To where my Father's house is found, Beyond death's gloomy portal, Where God's own Son, my Savior blest, Receives me as His welcomed guest Among the saints immortal. 2 The Lord be praised! I'm homeward bound, Where sin and death, the grave's sad mound, Forever are forgotten; Where living fountains ever flow, And trees their fruit each month shall grow For those of God begotten. 3 The Lord be praised! I'm homeward bound, Where I shall join the host renowned, Before His throne assembling, And there with all in love shall dwell In glory, which no tongue can tell, Relieved of fear and trembling. 4 The Lord be praised! I'm homeward bound, Where all the saints with beauty crowned Sing to His praise and glory; Where I my problems understand, As they were solved by God's own hand, And tell the blessed story. 5 So, then, with hope we onward press Thro' sorrow, trouble, and distress, In confidence and wonder, Until by angels borne on high, With sweet relief and happy sigh, Our eyes we open yonder.
