And o're the dark waters we glide

My heart's growing weary and worn

I'm longing with speed to go by

Your Savior, I'm longing for home

Longing for home, longing for home

My heart is longing for home

Longing for home, longing for home

My heart is longing for home

How sweet will be the time

With loved ones forever to roam

Sometimes to my heart becomes nearer

And then I am longing for home

Longing for home, longing for home

My heart is longing for home

Longing for home, longing for home

My heart is longing for home

How many more trials away

How many more tears to be sewin

Before I shall enter the gate

Dear Savior, I'm longing for home

Longing for home, longing for home

My heart is longing for home

Longing for home, longing for home

My heart is longing for home
