My Heart's in the Homeland

Verse 1

My heart’s in the Homeland, far, far o’er the tide, Where those who are faithful shall ever abide; My heart’s in the Homeland, that region so fair, Where loved ones are waiting to welcome me there.

Chorus

My heart’s in the Homeland, That region, that region fair; My heart’s in the Homeland, My Saviour, my Savior is there.

Verse 2

My heart’s in the Homeland, and why should I fear When labor is ended, a voice I shall hear That calls to a mansion where love never dies, To yonder fair region beyond the blue skies.

Verse 3

My heart’s in the Homeland, its valleys and hills, It’s sunshine with gladness, my whole being thrills; I know some glad morning my spirit will soar Away to the Homeland, and rest evermore.
