In a Little While We’re Going Home

Let us sing a song

That will cheer us by the way

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home;

For the night will end in the ev­er­last­ing day

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home.

In a lit­tle while

in a lit­tle while

We shall cross the bil­low’s foam;

We shall meet at last

When the stor­my winds are past

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home.

We will do the work

That our hands may find to do

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home;

And the grace of God

Will our dai­ly strength re­new

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home.

We will smooth the path

For some weary

way-worn feet

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home;

And may lov­ing hearts

Spread around an in­flu­ence sweet!

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home.

There’s a rest be­yond

There’s re­lief from ev­ery care

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home;

And no tears shall fall

In that ci­ty bright and fair

In a lit­tle while we’re go­ing home.
