445 ~ I'm But a Stranger Here
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.
