626. In a Little While We’re Going Home

D                  G         D           Em  D
Let us sing a song that will cheer us by the way,

                              A
In a little while we’re going home;

        A7                    D
For the night will end in the everlasting day,

     Em                 D  A   D
In a little while we’re go-ing home.

     A7                 D
In a little while, In a little while,

   Em    D         A7  D     A
We shall cross the bil-low’s foam;

D  Em    D             Em       G
We shall meet at last, When the stormy winds are past,

E7   D      Em          D  A7  D
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.
