This world is not my rest­ing place,
This world is not my rest­ing place,
Nearer home, sweet home,
Nearer home, sweet home,
There is beau­ty all around,
Thro’ a land of sin and shame,
I’ve wandered far away from God;
Then in the twink­ling of an eye,
I’ll wear a crown of glo­ry
I’m but a strang­er here,
I’ve wan­dered far away from God,
I shall wear a gold­en crown,
I’ve wandered far away from God,
I’ve wan­dered far away from God,
I shall wear a gold­en crown,

I seek a bet­ter home than this,

Nearer home, sweet home,
Nearer home, sweet home,
There is joy in ev’ry sound,
Trusting in the Sav­ior’s name,
The paths of sin too long I’ve trod;
Shall we be changed, no more to die,
I’ll sing the won­drous sto­ry
Earth is a des­ert drear,
The paths of sin too long I’ve trod,
I shall lay my bur­dens down,
The paths of sin too long I’ve trod,
The paths of sin too long I’ve trod,
I shall lay my bur­dens down,
