1 Jesus, I long for Thee, friendless I roam, Earth has no joy for me, Heaven is my home; When shall my soul arise, joyful with glad surprise, Up to its native skies? Heaven is my home. 2 Grant me a light divine, while here I roam, O’er my dark path to shine, Heaven is my home; O, my sad heart, be still, patient in every ill, Thine be a Father’s will; Heaven is my home. 3 There shall I see His face, no more to roam, Clasped in His dear embrace, Heaven is my home; Soon shall my spirit rise, joyful with glad surprise, Up to its native skies, Heaven is my home.
