124 4 HOME AT LAST.* Music by M. S. PIKE. 1. Home at last! home at last! From an earthly shore, For O, I've joined the ransomed 9:2 FINE. ones, Who passed on long before. Here each tear is wiped away By D. C. God, the Holy One; There's naught but songs of joy and praise Round the Eternal's throne. Words by Mrs. G. A. HULSE M'LEOD.-Sung at the grave of Bishop Waugh. 2 The pure in heart! the pure in heart! Robed in spotless white, Are here with starry crowns of joy, Who left me sad and lone, I meet among the heavenly host, From an earthly shore, For O, I've joined the ransomed ones 3 Safe at home! safe at home! O, let the echo go, To soothe the hearts that mourn me yet, In that first home below. His dear arms are round me now, Who was for sinners slain; Through him I've won eternal life; For me to die was gain. Safe at home! safe at home! From an earthly shore; I'll bless and praise thee, O my God, 141 Met again. 1 Met again, met again, In this loved retreat; 125 And O, it fills our souls with joy, There's naught on earth can break the tie 2 Trusting hearts, trusting hearts, And O, beside our happy home, There's not a place so sweet. The pride of wealth, the pride of birth, 3 Friendship sweet, friendship sweet, And on each heart 'tis graved in lines We meet in peace, we work in love, And unto Him who rules above, Lift up our voice in prayer. JESUS, TENDER SHEPHERD, HEAR ME. 127 Dr. E. R. BLANCHARD. 1. Jesus! tender Shepherd, hear me ! Bless thy little lamb to-night! Thro' the darkness be thou 9:3 Ritard. near me, Watch my sleep till morning light. 9 144 2 All this day thy hand has led me, Thou hast clothed me, warmed and fed me; 3 Let my sins be all forgiven! Bless the friends I love so well! Take me, when I die, to heaven, Happy there with thee to dwell. Tune and chorus on page 50.
