The Land Where Jesus Dwells

Hymnal: Kind Words #15 (1871) First Line: We are going home, and we may be almost there Lyrics: 1 We are going home, and we may be almost there; We are going home to the land where Jesus dwells. Chorus: Come and join our march to the land, to the land where Jesus dwells, For his love has prepared a welcome for us In the land where Jesus dwells. 2 Our troubles will end, and we know we need not fear, For all will be well in the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus] 3 Let us take up our cross without a murm'ring word, For it helps us on to the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus] There's a bright crown in heaven for all who love the Lord, Reserved safe above in the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus] 5 We will soon bid farewell to sin and sorrow too, For we're now on the way to the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus] 6 O Lord, bear me safe, death's icy current through, For 'tis all that divides from the land where Jesus dwells. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [We are going home, and we may be almost there]
