Thread Name: Lyr Req: That Beautiful Homeland (from Larry Moses
Subject: RE: 'Oh that homeland, beautiful homeland'
Beautiful Homeland, That

as sung by Bob Sloan,
County Rowan, KY, U.S. America

Far beyond the fleecy clouds is my Homeland
That fair land never seen by mortal eye,
And I'm only passing through on a journey
For my home is far beyond the starry sky

Chorus: Oh that Homeland! Beautiful Homeland!
Ageless land of pure delight, where the angels walk in white!
Oh that Homeland! Beautiful Homeland!
Soon on pinions I'll arise, and soar to thee!

Often here I see this Earth, clothed in beauty,
Flow'rs and blossems all around me as I roam;
But it never can compare with my Homeland!
Farewell, Earth! In the evening I am going Home!

Chorus

Oft times here, I grow homesick, and I wonder
Oh, Why that I'am asked to wait so long?
For I long to hear the harps of the angels,
And I long to hear the saints break forth in song!

Chorus



Will this work?
