Lyrics
Sorrows often meet us here
Burdens press us so
And the way is hard to see
That we have to go
But we press along in faith
To our home above
Letting Jesus lead us on
Resting in His love
What a happy time 'twill be
When we all get home
Over by the crystal sea
Nevermore to roam
In the homeland of the soul
Where the joy-bells chime
Singing while the ages roll
What a happy time
Come and join us on a march
To the happy place
Where we shall extol our Lord
Looking on His face
Sharing all the joys up there
In the sunny clime
Praising Jesus evermore
What a happy time
What a happy time 'twill be
When we all get home
Over by the crystal sea
Nevermore to roam
In the homeland of the soul
Where the joy-bells chime
Singing while the ages roll
What a happy time
What a happy time 'twill be
When we all get home
Over by the crystal sea
Nevermore to roam
In the homeland of the soul
Where the joy-bells chime
Singing while the ages roll
What a happy time
