It saddens me to know this song was removed from the current hymnal! However, the first time I heard it, I decided I would learn it on my own. What a beautiful and encouraging description of our eternal home.
Just over the mountains in the Promised Land, Lies the holy city built by God’s own hand; As our weary footsteps gain the mountain’s crest, We can view our homeland of eternal rest. Refrain: We are nearing home! We are nearing home! See the splendor gleaming from the domes afar! See the glory streaming through the “gates ajar!” There we soon will enter, nevermore to roam, Hear the angels singing! We are nearing home! We are nearing home. In the rolls of the prophets we have long been told Of that wondrous city with its streets of gold; Now with raptured vision we can see it there, With its walls of jasper and its mansions fair. Those who enter that city are the faithful few Who keep God’s commandments’faith of Jesus, too; There we’ll lift our voices through the endless days, In sweet songs of gladness and in psalms of praise. My brother, my sister, will you meet us there, In that land of sunshine where there’ll be no care? Accept of God’s message, and to Him be true; Then when Jesus cometh He will call for you. 😊😊😊😊😊
I just keep rewinding, the sabbath began. I can't even get off the TH-cam crying and smiling at the same time. This life is truly bitter sweet. Looking at the different faces with the different smiles, make me smile and 😢 too God is sooo good. Amazing God, amazing grace. What an amazing wonder, when you think of everyone with a different face, God is truly Creator, master architect, all Glory and honor to you Almighty God 🙏 ❤️.
I woke this morning with this song playing in my head. I haven't heard this song in years. I thank God for this message, we are nearing home 🙏
Let us continue to keep this type of music alive as we praise Yahweh more often in songs of prayer and praise 🎉🎶

God bless your ministry. Beautiful voices for God.
Just over the mountains in the Promised Land,
Lies the holy city built by God’s own hand;
As our weary footsteps gain the mountain’s crest,
We can view our homeland of eternal rest.
Refrain:
We are nearing home! We are nearing home!
See the splendor gleaming from the domes afar!
See the glory streaming through the “gates ajar!”
There we soon will enter, nevermore to roam,
Hear the angels singing!
We are nearing home!
We are nearing home.
In the rolls of the prophets we have long been told

Now with raptured vision we can see it there,
With its walls of jasper and its mansions fair.

There we’ll lift our voices through the endless days,
In sweet songs of gladness and in psalms of praise.

In that land of sunshine where there’ll be no care?
Accept of God’s message, and to Him be true;
Then when Jesus cometh He will call for you.
