We are desparately searching for the title and complete lyrics to a very old hymn that my Grandfather used to sing with a quartet. We know that part of the lyrics are "There's a beautiful home far over the sea; there's a beautiful home for you and for me; there's a beautiful mansion for you and for me." We don't know the name of the hymn or the rest of the lyrics. Please help us if you recognize this hyms. Thanks so much!

Hopefully this is the song you are looking for

Beautiful Home

There's a beautiful home far over the sea
With mansions of bliss for you and for me
A beautiful home so wondrously fair
That the savior for me has gone to prepare

There's a beautiful home (a beautiful home)
far over the sea (far over the sea)
There's a beautiful home (a beautiful home)
for you and for me (for you and for me)
Its glittering powers (its glittering powers)
of sun out shine (of sun out shine)
That beautiful home (that beautiful home)
someday shall be mine (someday shall be mine)

In that beautiful home a crown I shall wear
With the glorified throng their stories to share
But the doors of that home can never be known
Til the savior we see upon His white throne

avilb.
Thank you so VERY much. I just talked to my Mom and she said this is exactly the song we were searching for. My Grandfather sang in a quartet and this is one of the songs they sang and was one of his favorites, but we had been unable to find the lyrics. My Mom and other family members only remembered some of the words. Thanks again. We truly appreciate your help.
