SAFELY HOME

I am home in heaven, dear ones,

Oh, so happy and so bright!

There is perfect joy and beauty

in this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,

every restless tossing passed.

I am now at peace forever,

safely home in heaven at last.

There is still work waiting for you,

so you must not idly stand.

Do it now, while life remaineth,

you shall rest in God’s own land.

When that work is all completed,

He will gently call you home.

Ah, the rapture of that meeting,

Oh, the joy to see you come!
