There is a house not made with hands,
Eternal, and on high;
And here my spirit, waiting stands,
Till God shall bid it fly.
Chorus:
I long to see my friends again
And hear them sweetly say;
Come, weary dove, here is thy home,
Then fold thy wings and stay.
Shortly this prison of my clay
Must be dissolved and fall;
Then, Oh my soul, with joy obey
Thy heav’nly Father’s call.
(Chorus)
