Paradise from Feathered Dove by Culomba
Paradise (USA, M.L. Swan, 1867)
Originally published in The New Harp of Columbia in 1867, this song has been recently repopularized by its publication in a new American songbook, The Shenandoah Harmony. Its harmonies, unaltered from the original version, sound strikingly modern and very satisfying.

Lyrics
I know that my Redeemer lives,
I have a home in glory,
What comfort this sweet sentence gives,
I have a home in glory,
O glory, O glory,
There's room enough in Paradise,
To have a home in glory.
Come on my partners in distress,
We have a home in glory,
My comrades through the wilderness,
We have a home in glory
