Lyrics

1. For my homestead and its quiet longs my hopeful heart again. There awaits me joy in fullness, purest pleasure without pain.
2. In my homestead peace awaits me, peace the earth holds not in store. There with pure and sacred voices hear the seraphs all adore.
3. In my homestead joy awaits me, such as mortals cannot know. There the soul is free from suff'ring, knows no earthly pain or woe.
4. To my homestead I am trav'ling once afar, yet now so near. There hope's golden stars are shining o'er that heav'nly, blessed sphere.
Refrain: For my homestead and its quiet longs my hopeful heart again, my hopeful heart, my hopeful heart, for my homestead, for my homestead.
