Longing For Home Lyrics - Ralph Stanley

And o're the dark waters we glide 

My heart's growing weary and worn 

I'm longing with speed to go by 

Your Savior, I'm longing for home 

Longing for home, longing for home 

My heart is longing for home 

Longing for home, longing for home 

My heart is longing for home 

How sweet will be the time 

With loved ones forever to roam 

Sometimes to my heart becomes nearer 

And then I am longing for home 

Longing for home, longing for home 

My heart is longing for home 

Longing for home, longing for home 

My heart is longing for home 

How many more trials away 

How many more tears to be sewin 

Before I shall enter the gate 

Dear Savior, I'm longing for home 

Longing for home, longing for home 

My heart is longing for home 

Longing for home, longing for home 

My heart is longing for home
