I’m On My Journey Home 393b

Tune: Miss Sarah Lancaster, 1859
Alto: Miss Belle Spivey, 1902
Lyrics: Mead’s General Collection, 1807
Meter: Long Meter Half (8,8)
O who will come and go with me,
I am on my journey home;
I’m bound fair Canaan’s land to see,
I am on my journey home.

Chorus:

O come and go with me,
O come and go with me,
O come and go with me,
For I’m on my journey home.

Farewell vain world, I’m going home,
I am on my journey home;
My Savior smiles and bids me come,
I am on my journey home.

(Chorus)

Sweet angels beckon me away,
I am on my journey home;
To sing God’s praise in endless day,
I am on my journey home.

(Chorus)
