When the shades of night are falling, Bringing tho'ts our hearts appalling; Voices from the darkness calling, Bring to us sweet tho'ts of home.
When our earthly homes are broken, And our last farewells are spoken, Precious hope then bears a token, Tho'ts of home, sweet tho'ts of home.
Onward thru this world we wander, Shattered dreams and partings ponder, Heav'nly home just over yonder, Tho'ts of home, sweet tho'ts of home.
Tho'ts of home the wand'rer cheering, Ships into the port are steering, Tho'ts of home with hopes endearing, Tho'ts of home, sweet tho'ts of home.
