I’m Seeking a Home

Composer: Marion Burt, 1900

I’m seek­ing a home in the man­sions ab­ove

Where I can ab­ide with the Sav­ior I love

And sing the sweet song all the glo­ri­fied sing

While cast­ing their crowns at the feet of their king.

By faith I can see my Sav­ior’s sweet smile

And hear His sweet voice

Come high­er

My child;

So faith­ful and true ’mid cares and dis­tress

Enter in­to My joy! par­take of My rest.

I’m seek­ing a home thro’ tri­als sev­ere;

But grace will sus­tain when tri­als ap­pear;

I’ll la­bor and pray and dai­ly press on

E’er trust­ing the Lord

He’ll not leave me alone.

I’m seek­ing a home in the man­sions ab­ove

Conducted along by the heav­en­ly Dove.

What rap­ture is mine when I think of that bliss!

What com­fort I find in a pi­lot like this!

I’m seek­ing a home where loved ones have gone

Who fought the good fight and the vic­to­ry won;

And when I’m re­leased from sor­row and pain

All glo­ry to God! I shall see them again!
