We are traveling home to God, In the way the fathers trod: They are happy now, and we Soon their happiness shall see. Lift your eyes, ye sons of light, Sion's city is in sight: There our endless home shall be, There our Lord we soon shall see.

Lord, obediently we go, Gladly leaving all below; Only Thou our leader be, And we will still follow Thee. |
