The Road Home
PROSPECT from Southern Harmony, 1835
arr. Stephen Paulus (1949-2014)
Tell me, where is the road
I can call my own,
That I left, that I lost,
So long ago?
All these years I have wandered,
Oh, when will I know
There's a way, there's a road
That will lead me home?
After wind, after rain,
When the dark is done.
As I wake from a dream
In the gold of day,
Through the air there's a calling
From far away,
There's a voice I can hear
That will lead me home.
Rise up, follow me,
Come away, is the call,
With the love in your heart
As the only song;
There is no such beauty
As where you belong:
Rise up, follow me,
I will lead you home
Michael Dennis Browne
The Eyes of All
Jean Berger (1909-2002)
The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.
Thou openest thine hand and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
Psalm 145:15-16
The Promised Land
Tune from Southern Harmony, 1835
arr. Stephen Caracciolo (b. 1962)
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie.
Refrain
I am bound for the promised land,
I'm bound for the promised land;
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land.
Oh, the transporting rapt'rous scene,
That rises to my sight!
Sweet fields arrayed in living green
And rivers of delight!
There gen'rous fruits that never fail
On trees immortal grow;
There rocks and hills and brooks and vales
With milk and honey flow.
When shall I reach that happy place
And be forever blest?
When shall I see my Father's face
And in his bosom rest?
Soon will the Lord my soul prepare
For joys beyond the skies,
Where never-ceasing pleasures roll
And praises never die.
Samuel Stennet (1727-1795)
