The Stanley Brothers - Home Far Away lyrics

Oh lord have mercy on this weary soul of mine May I walk in your light everyday And when I've crossed that deep silent river I'll be happy in that home far away I wandered away from the straight and the narrow Driftin' like a ship lost at sea No lighthouse to guide my weary footsteps Til Jesus answered my plea The lights are bright no longer I'm blinded From the bondage of sin I'm free He lifted me up to join salvation I'll live on eternally
