925. I’M NEARER HOME


I Walk with God, through all the years,
Through flame and flood, through pain and tears;
I’ll follow Him, God’s Voice obey,
I’m nearer home than I was yesterday

CHORUS

I’m nearer home than I was yesterday
I’ll walk with my God, along this pilgrim way,
Each step I take, each prayer I pray,
I’m nearer home than I was yesterday.

Each thought I think, each breath I take,
Each step I walk brings me nearer heaven’s gate,
I’ll shout and rejoice, when I’m caught away,
I’m nearer home than I was yesterday.

The fleeting clouds, that swift the sky
The whispering waves that shift then die,
The drifting sands all speak a claim,
You’re nearer home than you were yesterday.
