Still tis sweet to know at even, We are one day near-er home,

In the evening cries with rapture," I am one day near- er home!" Nearer home,
As the twilight gathers o'er us, We are one day near-er home.
And our tents are pitched still closer, For we're one day nearer home.

nearer home,

Beautiful home, heavenly home,
