My home is God Himself; Christ brought me there

My home is God Himself; Christ brought me there

And bade me dwell in Him

rejoicing there;

He bore me where no foot but His hath trod

Within the holiest at home with God.

O holy place! O home divinely fair!

And we

God’s little ones

abiding there.

A long

long road I traveled night and day

And sought to find within myself some way

Aught I could do

or feel to bring me near;

Self effort failed

and I was filled with fear

And then I found Christ was the only way

That I must come to Him and in Him stay.

O wondrous place! O home divinely fair!

And I

God’s little one

safe hidden there.

Lord

as I dwell in Thee and Thou in me

So make me dead to everything but Thee;

That as I rest within my home most fair

I’ll share my God in all and everywhere.
