444 - I have a home beyond the river (c)

Lyrics

1. Oh, the blessed contemplation when with trouble here I sigh: >There's a home beyond the river, that I'll enter by and by. I have a home beyond the river, I have a mansion bright and fair. I have a home beyond the river and I will dwell with Jesus there.
2. Just a little more to labour: Spread the gospel, watch and pray. >Just a few more earthly sorrows, then to heav'n we'll fly away.
3. Oh, how sweet t'will be to meet them, all the ransomed host above. Sweeter still to see the Saviour, praise Him for redeeming love.
4. Though the world is filled with sorrow and the teardrops often fall, there will be but joy and gladness, safe inside the jasper wall.
