1 O land of rest, for thee I sigh! When will the moment come When I shall lay my armor by, And dwell in peace at home? Chorus: We'll work till Jesus comes, We'll work till Jesus comes; We'll work till Jesus comes, And we'll be gathered home. 2 To Jesus Christ I fled for rest; He bade me cease to roam, And lean for comfort on His breast Till He conduct me home. (Chorus) 3 I sought at once my Savior's side, No more my steps to roam; With Him I'll brave death's chilling tide, And reach my heav'nly home. (Chorus)
