1. He will bring me home in His own good time,
Then why should the way seem long?
I will trust His word and no more repine,
And the hours beguile with song.

Refrain

To the promised land of love,
To those mansions built above,
There I’ll see my Savior’s face;
In the paradise of God,
Washed and cleansed in Jesus’ blood,
I shall sing His wondrous grace.

2. He will not forget, tho’ He tarry long,
He will surely come again;
He has called me His, and my faith is strong
I shall some day with Him reign.

Refrain

3. I will gladly go to the promised land
When the King of Glory comes;
With the saints redeemed and an angel band
I shall hear those glad welcomes.

Refrain
