Danger and sorrow stand Round me on every hand; Heaven is my fatherland, Heaven is my home. 2 What though the tempest rage, Heaven is my home; Short is my pilgrimage, Heaven is my home. And time’s wild wintry blast Soon will be overpast, I shall reach home at last, Heaven is my home. 3 There, at my Saviour’s side, Heaven is my home, I shall be glorified, Heaven is my home; There, with the good and blest, Those I loved most and best, I shall for ever rest, Heaven is my home.
