626. In a Little While We’re Going Home

C                  F         C           Dm  C
Let us sing a song that will cheer us by the way,

                              G
In a little while we’re going home;

        G7                    C
For the night will end in the everlasting day,

     Dm                 C  G   C
In a little while we’re go-ing home.

     G7                 C
In a little while, In a little while,

   Dm    C         G7  C     G
We shall cross the bil-low’s foam;

C  Dm    C             Dm       F
We shall meet at last, When the stormy winds are past,

D7   C      Dm          C  G7  C
In a little while we’re go-ing home.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
Let us sing a song that will cheer us by the way, 
In a little while we’re going home; 
For the night will end in the everlasting day,
In a little while we’re going home.

[Refrain]
In a little while, In a little while,
We shall cross the billow’s foam; 
We shall meet at last,
When the stormy winds are past, 
In a little while we’re going home.

[Verse 2]
We will do the work that our hands may find to do, 
In a little while we’re going home;
And the grace of God will our daily strength renew, 
In a little while we’re going home.

[Verse 3]
We will smooth the path for some weary, way-worn feet,
In a little while we’re going home; 
And may loving hearts spread around an influence sweet!
In a little while we’re going home.

[Verse 4]
There’s a rest beyond, there’s relief from every care, 
In a little while we’re going home; 
And no tears shall fall in that city bright and fair,
In a little while we’re going home.
