Farewell, vain world!
I�m going home!
My Savior smiles and bids me come,
And I don�t care to stay here long!
-
Sweet angels beckon me away,
To sing God�s praise in endless day,
And I don�t care to stay here long!
Right up yonder, Christians,
away up yonder;
Oh, yes, my Lord,
for I don�t care to stay here long.
I�m glad that I am born to die,
From grief and woe my soul shall fly,
And I don�t care to stay here long!
-
Bright angels shall convey me home,
Away to New Jerusalem,
And I don�t care to stay here long!
Right up yonder, Christians,
away up yonder;
Oh, yes, my Lord,
for I don�t care to stay here long.
