One of the hymns in a church service last year (I think it was the Tenth Sunday after Pentecost) was "Oh, for a Faith That Will Not Shrink" (#396 in The Lutheran Hymnal). The last verse is:
Lord, give us such a faith as this;The last line is sung to this musical phrase (from the tune "St. Peter"):
And then, what'er may come,
We'll taste e'en now the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
The tune is in Eb major, and the last note is an Eb. This is the tonic - or "home" - note of that key, so "home" in the text is sung to the musical home of the tune.
