The Two Homes

I have two homes

two hap­py homes

By God

the Fa­ther giv­en;

One pre­cious home is here on earth

My oth­er home is Heav’n

My oth­er home is Heav’n.

I think up­on my earth­ly home

And sweet emo­tions rise

Yet still my spir­it longs to reach

My home ab­ove the skies

My home ab­ove the skies.

The glo­ries of my home ab­ove

Nor pen

nor tongue may tell

For none save spir­its sanc­ti­fied

In that bright land may dwell

In that bright land may dwell.

My Fa­ther! hear my ear­nest pray­er

For those I dear­ly love;

O take us all

when life is o’er

To our bright home ab­ove

To our bright home ab­ove.
