The Historic Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal
49. One Sweetly Solemn Thought
One sweetly solemn tho’t, Comes to me o’er and o’er!
I’m nearer to my home today, Than e’er I’ve been before.
CHORUS
Nearer my home, Nearer my home,
Nearer my home today, today,
Than e’er been before
Nearer my Father’s home, Where many mansions be!
Nearer the throne where Jesus reigns,
Nearer the crystal sea
Nearer my going home, Laying my burdens down,
Leaving my cross of heavy grief,
Wearing my starry crown.
