EN 5451 I’m But a Stranger Here

Heb.4.9

Versi Version 1

I’m but a stranger here, Heav’n is my home;

Earth is a desert drear, Heav’n is my home.

Danger and sorrow stand round me on every hand;

Heav’n is my fatherland, Heav’n is my home.

What though the tempest rage, Heav’n is my home;

Short is my pilgrimage, Heav’n is my home;

Time’s cold and wild wintry blast soon shall be over past;

I shall reach home at last, Heav’n is my home.

There at my Savior’s side Heav’n is my home;

I shall be glorified, Heav’n is my home.

There are the good and blest, those I loved most and best;

There, too, I soon shall rest, Heav’n is my home.

Therefore I murmur not, Heav’n is my home;

Whate’er my earthly lot, Heav’n is my home;

And I shall surely stand there at my Lord’s right hand.

Heav’n is my fatherland, Heav’n is my home.
