The Eternal Harbour is coming into view,
To things of time we soon shall bid adieu.
The earthly path filled with His love and goodness great
Will swell our song as we His worth relate.
The Eternal Harbour is coming into view,
Earth's dreary night exchanged for glories new.
A blessed sight of Him will then our eyes behold,
As His own glories to our gaze unfold.
The Eternal Harbour is coming into view,
What ne'er could be imagined will prove true.
To see Him face to face and hear His blessed voice,
With raptured hearts we'll in His peace rejoice.
The Eternal Harbour, soon anchored will we be,
At home in glory bright, no more at sea.
He'll fold us in His arms, with love, He will embrace
His children all, the objects of His grace.
The Eternal Harbour inside forever be
Home of all homes, with wonder will we see.
Love of all loves, will be our happy portion fair,
Joy of all joys, His, for His own are there.
