Hymn Lyrics Search - Name That Hymn

Hello family

Can anyone please help me with the choir version of I'm too near to my heavenly home to turn back now.

It would be nice to have both choruses (alto and soprano)

Thanks

If you can find a copy of "The Gospel Singing Caravan" red-covered songbook, it's there. I remember our youth group singing this one several times in the early 1970's. Other hymnals of that time may have it, too, but that's the one I remember. Who knows, one of the churches nearby may have surplus or extraneous songbooks you could use.

Are you still here?
I recently came into possession of 2 Gospel Caravan books.

Hello, I believe this might help


I've been traveling here in this life, with its heartaches troubles and strife
Sometimes Satan tries to tell me to turn aside
I say, "Satan, get thee behind, no returning in me, you'll find
I'm too near my heavenly home where I'll abide"

I'm too near home with my Lord
Too near home and heaven's reward
I am not returning to sin, I've made my vow
There's nothing to go back to, oh Praise the Lord, sweet heaven's in view
I'm too near my heavenly home to turn back now

There is joy in going this way, it gets sweeter everyday
My dear Lord is leading the way to realms above
He'll be with me until the end
Be my Savior, Guide and my Friend
I'll arrive in heaven, my home of perfect love

I'm too near home with my Lord
Too near home and heaven's reward
I am not returning to sin, I've made my vow
There's nothing to go back to, oh Praise the Lord, sweet heaven's in view
I'm too near my heavenly home to turn back now

I'm too near home with my Lord
Too near home and heaven's reward
I am not returning to sin, I've made my vow
There's nothing to go back to, oh Praise the Lord, sweet heaven's in view
I'm too near my heavenly home to turn back now.

3rd verse:

Just one glimpse inside the home gate, See the friends and loved ones who wait
Will be worth whatever the cost to make it through
I would not give up in the race, I'll continue by the Lord's grace
I'm too near that wonderful home beyond the blue
