SACRED HARP SINGERS — I'm Going Home lyrics

Lyrics

Farewell, vain world! I’m going home!
My savior smiles and bids me come
And I don’t care to stay here long!
Sweet angels beckon me away
To sing God’s praise in endless day
And I don’t care to stay here long!
Right up yonder, Christians, away up yonder
O, yes my Lord, for I don’t care to stay here long
I’m glad that I am born to die
From grief and woe my soul shall fly
And I don’t care to stay here long!
Bright angels shall convey me home
Away to New Jerusalem
And I don’t care to stay here long!
Right up yonder, Christians, away up yonder
O, yes my Lord, for I don’t care to stay here long
Right up yonder, Christians, away up yonder
O, yes my Lord, for I don’t care to stay here long
