Where the noiseless waves lie sleeping on the mountain-sheltered shore,
Where the surges never enter, where no stormy tempests riot,
Where the sails are furled forever and the ship goes out no more,
From the haven far away.Onward I travel, in gladness or in sorrow,
Across these trackless waters, with His love to cheer me through;

Our Savior has gone to prepare;
And oh, when we think of the bliss they unfold,
In spirit, how oft we are there.We sing of a land where the leaves never fall,
A land where their bloom never dies;
And Jesus Himself, with His own loving hand,
Will wipe every tear from our eyes.Refrain
We sing of the palms that the conquerors wave,
Who triumphed through Jesus our Lord;
Who fought to the last, and with shouts on their tongues,
Went home to receive their reward.Refrain
We sing of the friends who are waiting today
For us in that region so fair;
But who can describe what a joy it will be
To know that indeed we are there?Refrain

[Joh 14:2] I Shall Be No Stranger There
When the pearly gates are opened
To a sinner “saved by grace,”
When thro’ everlasting mercy,
I behold my Savior’s face,
When I enter in the mansions
Of the city bright and fair,
I shall have a royal welcome,
For I’ll be no stranger there.Refrain
I shall be no stranger there;
Jesus will my place prepare;
He will meet me, He will greet me;
I shall be no stranger there.Thro’ time’s ever changing seasons,
I am pressing t’ward the goal;
’Tis my heart’s sweet native country,
’Tis the homeland of my soul;
Many loved ones, clothed with beauty,
In those wondrous glories share;
When I rise, redeemed, forgiven,
I shall be no stranger there.Refrain
There my dear Redeemer liveth,
Blessèd Lamb upon the throne;
By the crimson marks upon them,
He will surely claim His own.
So, whenever sad or lonely,
Look beyond the earthly care;
Weary child of God, remember,
You will be no stranger there.Refrain

My heav’nly home is bright and fair,
Nor pain nor death can enter there;
Its glittering towers the sun outshine,

When from this earthly prison free,
That heav’nly mansion mine shall be.Refrain

Which flames devour, or waves o’erflow;
Be mine a happier lot to own
A heav’nly mansion near the throne.Refrain

[Joh 14:2] One Sweetly Solemn Thought
One sweetly solemn thought
Comes to me o’er and o’er;
Nearer to my home today am I
Than e’er I’ve been before.Nearer my Father’s house,
Where many mansions be;
Nearer today, the great white throne,
Nearer the crystal sea.Nearer the bound of life
Where burdens are laid down;
Nearer to leave the heavy cross,
Nearer to gain the crown.But lying darkly between,
Winding down through the night,
Is the deep and unknown stream
To be crossed ere we reach the light.Closer and closer my steps
Come to the dread abysm,
Closer death to my lips
Presses the awful chrism.Feel as I would my feet,
Are slipping over the brink;
For it may be, I'm nearer home—
Nearer now than I think.Father, perfect my trust!
Strengthen my power of faith!
Nor let me stand, at last, alone
Upon the shore of death.Be Thee near when my feet
Are slipping over the brink;
For it may be I’m nearer home,
Nearer now than I think.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Over the river my loved ones have passed,
Over the beautiful river;
Safe in the mansions of glory at last,
Now they are watching for me.Refrain
Watching today,
Watching today;
Loved ones are waiting,
Are waiting my coming today.Over the river with Jesus they rest,
Over the beautiful river;
Learning and singing the songs of the blest,
Yet they are watching for me.Refrain

Over the beautiful river;
Oft in the silence their voices I hear,
Still they are watching for me.Refrain
Over the river, to sever no more,
Over the beautiful river;
Soon I shall meet them on yonder bright shore,
Loved ones now watching for me.Refrain

[Joh 14:2] Our Father’s Home Eternal
Our Father’s home eternal,
O Christ, Thou dost prepare
With many divers mansions,
And each one passing fair;
They are the victors’ guerdon,
Who, through the hard-won fight,
Have followed in Thy footsteps,
And reign with Thee in light.Amidst the happy number
The virgins’ crown and queen,
The ever-virgin mother
Is first and foremost seen;
The patriarchs in their triumph
Thy praises nobly sing;
The prophets of Thy wisdom
Adore the nations’ King.Th’apostles reign in glory,
The martyrs joy in Thee;
The virgins and confessors
Thy shining brightness see;
And every patient sufferer,
Who sorrow dared contemn,
For each especial anguish
Hath one especial gem.The holy men and women,
Their earthly struggle o’er,
With joy put off the armor
That they shall need no more;
For these, and all that battled
Beneath their Monarch’s eyes,
The harder was the conflict,
The brighter is the prize.And every faithful servant
Made perfect in Thy grace,
Hath each his fitting station
’Mid those that see Thy face;
The bondsman and the noble,
The peasant and the king,
All gird one glorious Monarch
In one eternal ring.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Joh 14:2] Rise, My Soul, And Stretch Thy Wings
Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings, thy better portion trace;
Rise from transitory things, toward Heaven, thy native place:
Sun and moon and stars decay, time shall soon this earth remove;
Rise, my soul, and haste away to seats prepared above.Rivers to the ocean run, nor stay in all their course;
Fire ascending seeks the sun; both speed them to their source:
So my soul, that’s born of God, pants to view His glorious face,
Upward tends to His abode, to rest in His embrace.Fly me riches, fly me cares, whilst I that coast explore;
Flattering world, with all thy snares, solicit me no more.
Pilgrims fix not here their home; strangers tarry but a night;
When the last dear morn is come, they’ll rise to joyful light.Cease, ye pilgrims, cease to mourn, press onward to the prize;
Soon thy Savior will return, triumphant in the skies:
Yet a season, and you know happy entrance will be given
All our sorrows left below, and earth exchanged for Heaven.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

With its portals bright and fair,

And my heart will soon be there.Refrain

From my Father’s house on high,

And the whisper of the gale.Refrain

Dwells my Savior and my King;

And His praise my tongue shall sing.Refrain

It will bear me home, I know,
To the house of many mansions,
And the friends of long ago.Refrain

[Joh 14:2] Upward Where The Stars Are Burning
Upward where the stars are burning,
Silent, silent in their turning
Round the never changing pole;
Upward where the sky is brightest,
Upward where the blue is lightest,
Lift I now my longing soul.Far above that arch of gladness,
Far beyond these clouds of sadness,
Are the many mansions fair.
Far from pain and sin and folly,
In that palace of the holy,
I would find my mansion there.Where the glory brightly dwelleth,
Where the new song sweetly swelleth,
And the discord never comes;
Where life’s stream is ever laving,
And the palm is ever waving,
That must be the home of homes.Where the Lamb on high is seated,
By ten thousand voices greeted,
Lord of lords, and King of kings.
Son of Man, they crown, they crown Him,
Son of God, they own, they own Him;
With His Name the palace rings.Blessing, honor, without measure,
Heavenly riches, earthly treasure,
Lay we at His blessèd feet:
Poor the praise that now we render,
Loud shall be our voices yonder,
When before His throne we meet.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Clouds will overspread the sky;

Not a shadow, not a sigh.Refrain

Trusting, serving every day;
Just one glimpse of Him in glory
Will the toils of life repay.Refrain

Soon the pearly gates will open;
