We Are On Our Journey Home

Verse 1

We are on our journey home, Where Christ our Lord is gone; We shall meet around his throne, When he makes his people one, In the new Jerusalem.

Verse 2

We can see that distant home, Though clouds rise dark between; Faith views the radiant dome, And a luster flashes keen, From the new Jerusalem.

Verse 3

O glory shining far From the never-setting sun! O trembling morning star! Our journey's almost done, To the new Jerusalem.

Verse 4

O holy, heavenly home! O rest eternal there! When shall the exiles come, Where they cease from earthly care, In the new Jerusalem.
