445- I'm But a Stranger Here

Early Advent

1

  • I'm but a stranger here,
  • Heaven is my home;
  • Earth is a desert drear,
  • Heaven is my home;
  • Danger and sorrow stand
  • Round me on every hand;
  • Heaven is my Fatherland,
  • Heaven is my home.

2

  • What though the tempest rage,
  • Heaven is my home;
  • Short is my pilgrimage,
  • Heaven is my home.
  • Time's cold and wintry blast
  • Soon will be over-past;
  • I shall reach home at last;
  • Heaven is my home.

3

  • There at my Savior's side,
  • Heaven is my home;
  • I shall be glorified,
  • Heaven is my home.
  • There'll be the good and blest,
  • Those I love most and best,
  • There, too, I soon shall rest;
  • Heaven is my home.
