Let us sing a song that will cheer us by the way

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.

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.

We will smooth the path for some weary, way-worn feet —
In a little while we're going home;
Oh, may loving hearts spread around an influence sweet!
In a little while we're going home.

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.
