OUR HEAVENLY HOME Our earthly homes are simple things, of plaster and of board, Sometimes as humble as the nest built by a wildwood bird. And yet through all our lives our hearts cling to the childhood home Of hallowed, precious memories, no matter where we roam. And so I often think about how dear, how very dear Our heavenly home will come to be with every passing year, That home where we shall meet and dwell with loved ones gone be fore, And sometimes, looking up, shall see our Lord come through the door. O lovely home, where fulfilled joys become rich memories, And ever sweeter pleasures crowd age long eternities!
