Perto do Lar
Hinário Adventista
Near Home
The sun sets behind the mountains
And the afternoon has arrived
Calm and quiet comes the night
Another day has ended
It has gone with its struggles
Soon the dark night comes
But the memory is sweet
Near is the home beyond
Near home, near home
Near, yes, the home of Heaven!
From that beautiful home
With crystal fountains
From the land of the eternal God
Very tired the pilgrim
Wants to reach the end of the day
From the labor, which is so burdensome
Once again will rest
Such is life in this world
That we must go through
But the shadows remind us
The eternal home is near
Another day on the journey
Towards the paternal house
The river is closer now
To the celestial country
The city already shines
We glimpse its radiance
Closer and closer we are
To the glorious home of love
